The crew was great. Everyone (ages 10-71) had a great experience. Everyone caught at least one fish, several caught multiple fish. The crew explained the fish were and if edible, the fish could be taken home to eat. One hint: wear dark, old clothes since squid ink may end up on your clothes and it is really hard to get. We would highly recommend this tour.

Family fun, beginner friendly

Lin_R, Aug 2026
We had a great experience on the fishing tour! Communication was smooth from the beginning, and the crew was very welcoming. Check-in was easy, and the boat never felt crowded. Each group had plenty of space to fish comfortably, which made the experience relaxed and enjoyable. The crew gave helpful instructions and provided plenty of personal attention throughout the trip. As a beginner, I was especially grateful for their guidance—and I got lucky with three fish! We took pictures and released all three right afterward. Most of the other groups also caught multiple fish, so there was plenty of action throughout the trip. There was also an option to keep eligible fish. If participants chose to keep their catch, the crew would process it, wrap it, and keep it chilled for them to claim at the end of the tour. It was nice to have the choice depending on what each group preferred. A couple of helpful tips for future guests: make sure adults purchase their fishing license in advance. The requirement and the link are provided on the tour booking page, so it’s easy to take care of ahead of time. The water was quite smooth during our trip, although several passengers still experienced motion sickness. The crew had ginger candies available, which was a thoughtful touch and seemed to help. Overall, a fun, well-organized trip with a great crew. I’d definitely recommend it, especially for beginners!

Pap and grandson time

Cari_L, Aug 2026
My grandson and I had a great time, and we both caught fish! Very easy process and the guides were helpful!

Fun few hours fishing

Rayme_B, Aug 2026

Fun day forging

Ted_J, Aug 2026
Ethan and Ayla were great. It's seemed like everyone on the boat was catching. Fun little trip on the water

Not much fishing

Robert_H, Aug 2026
3 hr bottom fishing, but when time taken out for dock instructions, drive time to reef, bait pass out, and moving spots, only about 1.5 hours of actual fishing.

Best Vacation Fishing Trip Ever

Samuel_H, Jun 2026
Great staff. Kind, supportive, and knowledgeable. They went above and beyond to make the trip an amazing experience for all

Always on our itinerary

Lisa_V, Jun 2026
We had an incredible experience. We saw flying fish, 4ft shark, and turtles. We fished in 40 ft waters and could see the ocean floor. We each caught fish and do this tour every time we visit.

Terrible

JT_T, Jun 2026
Rickety, dilapidated boat to the smell of gasoline and felt like it was going to tip over a times. Terrible.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear about your distress caused by the boat’s condition and the gasoline smell. Passing Coast Guard inspection last Thursday, we take concerns like this very seriously and are reviewing our maintenance and safety procedures to prevent recurrence, including a thorough inspection of the hull, engine compartment, and bilge, as well as addressing any fuel odors promptly. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Worth it!

This 3-hour fishing...

Malachi_M, May 2026
This 3-hour fishing charter was absolutely incredible! I went out with my dad, and it turned out to be the perfect bonding experience. From the moment we left the dock, the crew looked after us, guiding us to some phenomenal spots where the fish were constantly biting. We both caught a ton of fish, which kept the energy high and the excitement going the entire trip. On top of the action, the coastal views and beautiful sights along the way were stunning. If you want a memorable, well-run trip that delivers on both action and scenery, this is it. Five stars all the way!

Fun family, friendly activity

Maria_B, May 2026
This was a fun affordable activity and although we did not catch a ton of fish, the ones we did were very beautiful and fun. The captain and the mates all were very nice and helpful. Also, it’s a beautiful boat ride.

Excellent experience!

Vicki_R, Apr 2026
Great trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a hard time getting to Oahu due to flight cancellations and had a horrible tour yesterday at the Pearl Harbor thanks to the guide; however, this trip is turning our dream trip sunny again. My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves.

Best Fun Ever Fishing... Again!!!

Marcia_T, Apr 2026
Wonderful captain and crew. We fished away from all the other charters and caught beautiful reef fish. This was my 4th time fishing with Ohana Fun Fishing and I'll be back again!!!

Good

Rory_G, Mar 2026
Good boat good rods. Captain is nice. Soap buckets good and cup holder bait great. Check it out for sure

Not worth the money

Ryan_C, Mar 2026
The captain and first mate were great; however I do not think they were experts at locating fish. Two fish total with 15 people for three hours. We went to deep water when it was windy and then kept moving locations. I was very disappointed.

Fun time!

Abigail_W, Feb 2026
We both caught fish and we saw 4 sharks it was a great experience and we could bring our own alcohol to drink and snacks which was nice. Plus the bathroom on board was convenient to have since it was a 3 hour excursion.

Not sure I would pick this boat.

Randy_B, Feb 2026
Captain failed to find fish. Mate was good, but started with a bit of an attitude.Did mellow out. Bring water.

3 hour tour and fish.

Mark_L, Feb 2026
Very friendly staff...was a very pleasant afternoon...we all caught a couple fish and the views were nice...

Happy Canadians

Claudine_T, Feb 2026

Good Time

Melvin_J, Feb 2026
Good fishing experience, caught lots of Trigger fish of different species, I never knew there are so many variations. The crew were kind and patient. I could've fished another 3hrs.

Great experience!

Paul_K, Jan 2026
This was a great experience. I did this with my 8 year old daughter and she loved it. Large boat with plenty of fishing gear on board. The deckhand was knowledgeable and did a fantastic job rejigging gear when losing hooks and/or sinkers (she is very fast and efficient). The captain drives the boat out to see in roughly 60ft deep water without anchoring. The only negatives I have is that they do not use a fish finder to locate fish increasing the chances of catching more and that not anchoring sometimes causes lines to run under the boat. We caught 2 small fish each. We had a fun day (3 hours). Would still recommend so get into it and enjoy catching some fish in paradise!

Awesome experience

Jace_H, Jan 2026
Went out with my buddy’s had an awesome time we all caught 3-4 fish so it was definitely worth it! Awesome experience, the crew was amazing and very helpful!
