Captain Chad’s Charters, located at Kawaihae Harbor on the Big Island of Hawaii, offers private, customizable boat charters along the stunning Kohala Coast. Owned and operated by Captain Chad Barga, a Marine Corps veteran, certified scuba instructor, and graduate of the National University Polytechnic Institute, this family-friendly charter service provides a welcoming and inclusive environment for all ages and skill levels. Every trip is designed to ensure safety, comfort, and enjoyment, making it a perfect choice for families looking to create special memories together on the water.

Year-round fishing trips include sport fishing, spearfishing, and bottom fishing, with all necessary gear, bait, and refreshments provided. For a relaxing evening, two-hour sunset cruises offer a serene view of the Kohala Coast at dusk. Custom private charters, available for three to six hours, can be tailored to suit specific interests, such as snorkeling, sightseeing, fishing, or observing marine life. From December through April, seasonal whale-watching tours provide an awe-inspiring chance to see humpback whales in their natural habitat. For a unique night adventure, private excursions invite you to swim with graceful manta rays under the stars.

The fleet includes two well-maintained boats, the Niolo Nui, a 32-foot center console with twin 300 Yamaha outboards, a bathroom, kitchenette, freshwater shower, and flexible seating, and the Svetlana, a 28-foot cuddy cabin equipped with twin 200 Yamaha outboards, shaded cabin space, fishing outriggers, refrigeration, and storage. Both vessels can accommodate up to six passengers, offering a safe and comfortable experience for everyone.
