Would these work for viewing whales from a beach on Kauai?

This will work great and clear within 40 yards...depend on how close to a object you want to watch.

They would would great and are small and light enough to carry around all day without dropping over from exhaustion.

They are great small binoculars. I don't see why not. I use them for stadium viewing. (Football games) isn't everything good on a beach in Hawaii?

No, I don't think so. I would recommend these binoculars up to 1,000 yards. You may want to use a telescope instead.

Absolutely! These are great for viewing the neighborhood and beyond. I've taken pictures of the moon with these!! But because they do view so far out, it helps to have a tripod. These are great!!

I think they would be excellent for that purpose. They are very compact and light and the optical quality is good.

Absolutely not, but they are excellent in low light conditions. I can scan a field before light and see if there are any deer in it

Yes there is. I use these for all football games and have used them for whale watching

Not sure as I have not used them on the boat yet. Since they are not stabilized, I'm not sure if they would work on the sea,, especially if moving. They produce a very clear image, but I mostly depend on my wife's keen eyes to spot birds diving. I use the binocs to check the sea surface conditions from our patio a lot, but not the same.

That is why I purchased them. They helped watching wild life, whales, eagles, mountain goats, etc. Wife says they were not too heavy. We have lighter glasses but they are larger and cheaper and not as effective. Enjoy trip!!!

If you're using these on the water it would seem that you might consider the marine style. However, I love these for viewing deer and other animals in the forest. Very easy to focus these binoculars. I would give them a rating of 9 out of 10.

Probably... I got them for my wife to watch birds. They are light to carry & bright to look through. She likes 'em. If you are new to binoculars, yes you will like 'em and they will serve you well. If you are familiar with full sized ones (i.e. boat anchors that require a mono/tripod to use - you will be disappointed. But for a general set of small, light and powerful - they are a good choice.

They have better than average low light vision, but you will need at least a dim light for a viewable image. They do have a day/night mode and do see IR light. The seams are quite tight and there are no obvious openings for water, so look as though would be fine outdoors.

Yes, I think these would be good for concert. We also use them for bird watching and boating.

Yes these will up to around 20 miles and have a great imagine for them as well. For the price couldn't ask for a better set of binoculars . Work well at night from the wheelhouse of your vessel. Only part I had a hard time with is the range formula to give range with them.

Yes, that is advisable. They are powerful binoculars and very difficult to hold still. Therefore, what you see jumps around so the power is offset by a blurry image.

I think they should work just fine. There needs to be some kind of loop on the binoculars where straps will be attached.

They would work well for that purpose. I returned mine because I wanted it for birding, and the bird needed to be too far away. But I did take it to one concert and found it worked very well.

These bino's were junk would not clearly focus at any distance. I bought a set of pentax binos and they were great, cost alot of money. They might be ok to see the sea but not clearly.Barrie
