Aloha, We ran 4 Whale Watch Cruises and and a Snorkel Cruise on Wednesday — so there’s really too much to report. On each cruise we saw spouts from a dozen and a half whales…maybe more, We saw lots of breaching, lots of tail lobs, many fluke dives, and even some pec slaps. Oh, and on …
Aloha, We saw lots and lots of different whales on our cruises on Tuesday. Highlights included sightings of 6 different whales during our 10:00 Whale Watch from Kawaihae. 3 of these Humpbacks seemed interested in us as well, as they surfaced right off our bow taking a look at us. We also saw a couple …
Aloha, We had a great day out on the ocean on Monday. During the 8:00 Wake Up with the Whales Cruise on Manu Iwa, we spent most of our time watching 2 different pods of 3 whales surfacing, spouting, and then diving for between 4 and 8 minutes at a time. Though there were other …
Aloha, Hope your weekend was as fun as ours! We operated a lot of Whale Watch Cruises this weekend, and had multiple sightings on every cruise — too much to report in one email, so here are a few highlights: We ran two Whale Watch Cruises on Christmas Day — one out of Anaeho’omalu Bay …
Aloha, On Thursday’s 10:00 Whale Watch, Captain Jeff reports seeing the same two sub-adult Humpbacks he watched the day before. How would he know they were the same two?

Aloha, We operated a couple of different Whale Watching Cruises on Wednesday. On our 8:00 Wake up with the Whales Cruise, we spent considerable time watching two relatively small Humpbacks diving and surfacing off or Puako.

Guests saw 6 different Humpbacks multiple times during the cruise, and two breaches. One was about a mile away, but the other was about 250 yards away…a pretty awesome sight. The ocean …
Aloha, On Monday’s 8:00 Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Anaeho’omalu Bay, guests saw quite a few whales. All the action was just north of the bay from about the Mauna Lani condos to Hapuna Beach, so we didn’t have to travel far at all. We watched 5 or 6 different whales (it’s sometimes …

These two seemed like they were enjoying the calm early morning ocean conditions, surfacing together and diving together. Of course we always maneuver our boat to stay more …
