    Weekend of Whale Watch Firsts

    Weekend of Whale Watch Firsts

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 16, 2018

    Aloha, We had a weekend of Whale Season firsts! On Friday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise we got to watch a pod of two whales spout, surface, and slip under the water several times before we lost them. On our way back to the bay towards the end of the cruise, we saw those …

    Humpback Hangs with Us!

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 13, 2018

    Aloha, We wish you could have been with us aboard Thursday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise. Shortly after leaving the bay, we saw spouts to our north, so we headed up towards the Mauna Lani Resort. Once we got there, our spouter surfaced and we realized he was a lone juvenile whale. Of course …

    A Mixed Bag

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 11, 2018

    Aloha, We’ve operated a few cruises since our last report, and though our sighting success has been a bit of a mixed bag, we did have a lot of fun. On Monday’s Mid-Morning Whale Watch we cruised around for over an hour before we finally saw a spout. We headed to the area where we …

    Windy Weekend for Whale Watchig

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 9, 2018

    Aloha, What a weekend for wind…and if you were anywhere on the Kohala coast this past weekend, we know you’ll agree that those trade winds just didn’t let up. Unfortunately those strong winds cause us to travel much, much more slowly when at sea…so we can’t cover as much ground during our Whale Watch Cruises. …

    Juvenile Humpback Makes an Appearance

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 6, 2018

    Aloha, Guests on Thursday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise were delighted to see a juvenile Humpback offshore of the Mauna Lani Resort. This smaller whale seemed to be on his way somewhere (or maybe it was “from” somewhere) as he surfaced and spouted a couple of times before sounding and swimming underwater, then surfacing, …

    Humpbacks Aren’t Considered Endangered, But…

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 5, 2018

    Aloha, The Humpbacks were hiding during our Tuesday Wake up with the Whales Cruise, so we called it a fluke and invited everyone back again for FREE. By the way, the Ocean Sports guarantee is a “Real Guarantee“…if you don’t see a Humpback on our morning Wake up with the Whales Cruise or Mid-Morning Whale …

    Spinner Dolphins Join Us for Some Fun

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 4, 2018

    Aloha, We only operated one dedicated Whale Watch Cruise on Monday…our Mid-Morning Whale Watch, and we were excited to see some wild cetaceans during this cruise. A fairly large pod of Spinner Dolphins found us on Alala, and apparently decided that we were worth investigating. This pod surrounded us for quite awhile, jumping, spinning, leaping, …

    First Whale Report of the Season!

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|December 2, 2018

      Aloha, We can hardly believe it’s Whale Watch Season again (where has the year gone?)…but we’re happy to report that on Saturday, on our first official Whale Watch Cruise of the year, we saw whales! We were about 1/2 way through our Wake up with the Whales Cruise before Captain Ryan saw some spouts …
