Hawaii Big Eye Tuna, also known as Ahi, is a species of tuna (Thunnus obesus) caught by Hawaii’s longline fishing fleet, valued for its firm, reddish-pink flesh and mild flavor. It is distinguished from the yellowfin tuna (the other “Ahi”) by its plump body, larger head, and larger eyes. It is rich in omega-3s and other nutrients and is caught year-round, peaking in the winter months.

The Fresh Catch Hawaii Big Eye Tuna is a natural extension of the promises of The Fresh Catch brand, offering only the freshest seafood, caught in season and delivered fresh. You’ll find a selection of #1+ and #2+ Tuna Loins and a Tuna Tomahawk Rack available as part of the product portfolio.
