What a rare catch by little Jason! Maybe not one in a million but we've collectively only ever seen this done once before. He hooked and left his catch (small yellow snapper) near the bottom long enough for it to be attacked by a He'e (Hawaiian Octopus) also locally called by its Japanese name, tako. The pole got heavy and the He'e caught a ride to the boat. How cool for everyone! For survival reasons, we let him go in the shallows!
One in a Million!
The Team at MANA Cruises
Why VENTURE?
Hawaii is saturated with many different types of ocean activities. Being in the commercial chartering scene for nearly a decade, we noticed a gap in Hawaii's fishing offerings, where there are plenty of Deep-Sea Fishing Experiences, but none are aimed at catering to the whole family - regardless of age & experience.
At The VENTURE Boat, we offer more than just exceptional fishing and snorkeling trips from Ko Olina—we provide a family-like atmosphere that enhances every adventure. Our crew is not just a team; we are a family, not through blood but through years of working closely together, sharing countless sea voyages - and above all: a shared commitment to SAFETY, ALOHA & EXCELLENCE.
