Capt. Jeff runs trips out of Honolulu aboard a 47’ Cabo Express. These waters are known for Tuna and Marlin and he will show you how to catch them. With great knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

Wow!

My family and I have been on 3 charters in the last few years. Waikiki Deep Sea Fishing is by the far the best! Captain K was wonderful. He is super kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, and a pleasure to talk with. His boat was perfect! My wife, a non fisherman, got to sit on the comfortable seating but not be walled off from the fishing action. Seas were a little rough today but the 50’ boat handles water great.

Aloha Mark! Mahalo for the incredible review! We're so glad to hear that your experience with Waikiki Deep Sea Fishing stood out among your past charters. Captain K and Deckhand K will be thrilled to know their passion, knowledge, and hospitality made such an impact. We’re especially happy your whole family—fishermen and non-fishermen alike—felt comfortable and included. Even on choppier days, that 50’ boat keeps things smooth and steady! We hope to welcome you all back for another fishing adventure soon. Mahalo Go Hawaii Watersports

Kalani was amazing setting the 7 rigs with different lures and ensuring every minute was a potential catch. We were staying in a hotel,...
