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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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, …
Aloha, Due to a number of scheduled Exclusive Cruises, we only ran one dedicated Whale Watch Cruise on Wednesday — our Wake up with the Whales Cruise. Guests on this trip were treated to quite the explosive adventure We started out watching a pod of two mature Humpbacks spouting and sounding — one had very …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
