    Exclusive Charter Update – Day 3

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 28, 2018

    Aloha, On our third and final day of the exclusive charters for the SAP conference, guests on our morning cruises from Anaeho’omalu Bay saw a pod of Spinner Dolphins who were in “resting mode”. We also all got to spend time with a Mom/Baby pod. Mom seemed to be unaccompanied by an escort, and unlike …

    Exclusive Charter Update – Day 2

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 28, 2018

    Aloha, On Day 2 of our Exclusive Charters for the SAP technology group we found all sorts of interesting Humpback behaviors going on. Guests joining us on our morning Anaeho’omalu Bay Cruises got to see a lot of a Mom/Baby/Escort trio. Baby, of course, was on the surface quite a bit, and appeared to be …

    Exclusive Charter Humpback Update – Day One

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 26, 2018

    Aloha, All 3 of our catamarans are booked up this Monday, Tuesday, and most of Wednesday with multiple exclusive charters for the SAP technology convention happening in our area. With cruises running all day, there’s really too much to report on (and too much to read), so I’m just going to include a few of …

    Weekend Update (includes Audio)

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 25, 2018

    Aloha, We started our weekend with Momma Humpback and her baby swimming right under our boat during Friday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise. Later in the trip, we had a close encounter with a couple of curious adult Humpbacks — but not as close as that Momma and calf were! Guess what happened on …

    Humpbacks in Space

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 23, 2018

    Aloha, On Thursday, we only ran one dedicated Whale Watch Cruise, and just like on Wednesday, it was our Wake up with the Whales Cruise. On this cruise we got an opportunity to test our theory that Humpbacks are attracted to noisy boats. After looking at a couple of different whales who spouted and sounded, …

    Not EVERYONE was Resting!

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 21, 2018

    Aloha, Tuesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise was really aptly named, as we began the cruise with a logging (a.k.a. “napping”) Mom and her very newly born calf (this little guy was very light colored and his dorsal fin was almost completely folded over). Later in the cruise we watched a pod of two …

    Young Humpbacks

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 20, 2018

    Aloha, Monday’s Wake up with the Whale Cruise just kept getting better and better. At first, our sightings were of pods of two Humpbacks surfacing and spouting several hundred yards away. But as the cruise continued, we kept seeing whales closer and closer to the boat until at the end of the charter, a young …

    Humpbacks EVERYWHERE!

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 18, 2018

    Aloha, As usual, there’s so much to report from a weekend of Whale Watching, so here are just a few highlights. Towards the end of Friday’s Snorkel and Whale Watch Adventure Cruise, we found a Mom/Calf pod. They both swam towards our stern, and we got a great view of Mom’s flukes when she lifted …

    Whales in the Wind

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 15, 2018

    Aloha, The southwesterly winds started blowing during our Thursday Wake up with the Whales Cruise (and that makes for rough seas), but the Humpbacks seemed to love it! There were spouts (and rainbows) in every direction we looked during the entire time we were out to sea. In the beginning of the cruise we found …
