For Ko Olina Resort Guests

Deep Sea Fishing, Right Inside Your Resort

Staying at Aulani, Four Seasons, or Marriott Ko Olina? The boat is already here.

No Pre-Dawn Drive. No Logistics.

Most O'ahu fishing charters leave from Kewalo Basin in Honolulu. If you're staying at Ko Olina, that means loading the family into a rental car before sunrise for a long drive across the island, then doing it again on the way back.

Reel Addiction III is berthed at Ko Olina Marina, inside the same resort as your hotel. Walk over along the lagoons or drive two minutes, step on board, and we're in deep water five minutes after leaving the dock.

From Your Resort to Slip F7

Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa

A scenic walk along the lagoon path, or a couple of minutes by car. You can watch the sunrise over the lagoons on your way to the boat.

Four Seasons Resort O'ahu

Right next door to Aulani, with the same easy stroll or short drive down to the marina at the harbor end of the resort.

Marriott's Ko Olina Beach Club

The closest of the three. The Beach Club sits near the marina side of the resort, so you're at the slip in minutes.

Staying at the Beach Villas or elsewhere in Ko Olina? Same deal. Everything in the resort is minutes from the marina.

Built Around Your Vacation

  • Sleep later. No cross-island drive means you meet the boat minutes before departure.
  • Smoother ride. The only SeaKeeper gyro stabilizer in the Ko Olina fleet, a big deal for kids and anyone prone to seasickness.
  • More fishing, less running. Ko Olina puts us in deep water five minutes from the dock. We're catching bait while other boats are still running out.
  • Back for the afternoon. A 3/4 day trip runs 5-6 hours. Fish all morning, be back at the pool with the family by early afternoon.
  • Eat your catch that night. We fillet at the dock and can connect Ko Olina guests with chefs who will cook your fish for dinner.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Ko Olina guests ask before booking

How far is Ko Olina Marina from Aulani?

The marina is inside Ko Olina Resort, at the harbor end of the lagoons. From Aulani or Four Seasons it's a scenic walk along the lagoon path or a couple of minutes by car. Marriott's Ko Olina Beach Club is even closer. We're at Slip F7.

What time does the trip leave?

It varies based on sunrise and when the bait starts biting. Captain JR will call you the night before with the exact meet time. Typically it's around 6am, but could be earlier or slightly later depending on conditions.

Is this a good trip for kids and first-timers?

Yes. Reel Addiction III carries the only SeaKeeper gyro stabilizer in the Ko Olina fleet, which makes for a much smoother, more comfortable ride. Morning water is typically calmer, and Ko Olina's location offers protection from trade winds. Our crew keeps it fun and down-to-earth for everyone on board.

Do we need a fishing license?

The State of Hawaii requires all non-resident anglers age 15 and older to have a recreational marine fishing license, including on charter boats. A 1-day license is $20 and you can buy it online at fishing.hawaii.gov, even on your phone before departure.

Can we eat what we catch?

Yes. We clean and fillet your catch at the dock. If you're staying at Ko Olina, we can connect you with chefs who will prepare your fish for dinner that same night.

How long are the trips?

The 3/4 day runs 5-6 hours, the full day runs 8-10 hours, and the Extravaganza is dark to dark. With a 3/4 day trip you can be back at the resort pool by early afternoon.
