Sadly there isn't a ferry from California to Hawaii. At its closest point, mainland USA lies around 2,400 miles away and the distance is much more than a normal passenger ferry would cover across the vast depths of the Pacific Ocean.
Given its remoteness, Hawaii even has its own time zone, Hawaii Standard Time which is 3 hours behind the Pacific Time Zone used in the US west coastal areas.
Given the frequency of flights to Hawaii, their regular availability does mean that demand for a ferry crossing is low. The considerable sailing distance would also mean ferries would struggle to compete with the relatively cheap cost of flights.
Infrastructure on the Hawaiian islands would also need considerable investment, as the current piers could not accommodate such large ferries needed to tackle the unpredictable Pacific crossing.
