    Aloha, Guests on Tuesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise saw more than 15 different Humpbacks — maybe 20.

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 2, 2016

    Aloha, Monday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise on Seasmoke started out kind of mellow. We weren’t seeing a whole lot, so we stopped the boat and dropped the hydrophone.
