Blue Water Charters

The Blue Water Hunter is now offering charters in and around Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. We will customize your charter for you, your family, friends, film crews, scuba divers, whale watchers etc. Please contact us in advance for your custom charter.

All spearfishing charters will include ice, chum, flashers, snacks and beverages but will also include a qualified and knowledgeable Licensed Captain and certified dive guide.

Our main focus is blue water spearfishing, with the greatest chance of spearing Ono and Mahi Mahi. However, it is not uncommon to see Ahi and a variety of Bill fish like Striped Marlin, Black Marlin and Blue Marlin. Divers have also reported sightings of Sail fish and Spear fish. Along the way it is common to see a variety of Whales and Dolphins. We also have a great selection of sharks to take pictures of including Oceanic Whitetip, Bronze Whaler, Hammer Head, Thresher, Mako, Tiger, Galapagos, Grey Reef, Whitetip reef etc. If the blue water spearfishing is slow we will check a variety of remote reef areas to spear fish. We allow a strictly limited maximum amount of five (5) reef fish per diver per day.

Charters do not include spearfishing equipment and unfortunately we are unable to offer rental equipment. However, The Blue Water Hunter offers all the equipment you will need for purchase. All speros are required to have a speargun, tag line and a float with a dive flag. From beginner level to the most advanced we have you covered.

Spearfishing charters are offered every day of the week. We meet at the local Honokohau harbor at 7:45 am, depart the harbor by 8:00 am and are back to the boat dock at 1:00 pm.

If you have never tried this most extreme sport of Blue Water Hunting, then this is the right trip for you. If you are an experienced spero and just need someone to guide you to the best locations in Hawaii, then this trip is for you as well. Do not wait any longer, the adventure is upon you.
