Certain rules and restrictions apply. The Whale Pass is nontransferable. Each pass only allows the person identified on the pass to go whalewatching. The Whale Pass holder must show photo i.d. whenever checking in for a whalewatch cruise.
* The Whale Pass may only be used for Pacific Whale Foundation's Whalewatch Cruises that are regularly priced at $34.95 or less. It may not be used for Pacific Whale Foundation's Sunset Cocktail or Dinner Cruises, Island Rhythm Cruise, Molokini or Lanai snorkel cruises, VIP whalewatches, evening or holiday cruises.
Reservations are required for all whalewatch cruises, including those that involve the Whale Pass. For reservations, call 1-800-942-5311 or (808) 249-8811 ext. 1. The Whale Pass holder will be asked to provide the code from their Whale Pass at the time of booking.
Pacific Whale Foundation's regular 48 hour cancellation policy applies; if the Whale Pass holder makes a whalewatch reservation with their Whale Pass, they may cancel or reschedule up to 48 hours prior to the departure time of their cruise. Cancellations or no-shows within 48 hours of their cruise will be deducted from your Whale Pass.
"All in all, it's very easy to use the Whale Pass," says Mayer. "And it's a great way to ensure you or your gift recipient will enjoy a lot of great whalewatching this year."
