    Humpbacks Breach Repeatedly…Could You (Even Once)?

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 28, 2020

    Aloha, We wish you could have joined us on Thursday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise. Though we still had some pretty brisk trade winds blowing throughout the duration of the cruise, we saw somewhere between a dozen and a dozen and a half different Humpbacks. Highlights included watching a whale about a mile away …

    Spouting and Sounding

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 25, 2020

    Aloha, The trade winds came back over night, so we were met with some blustery conditions for Tuesday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise. Still, despite the wind, guests joining us saw quite a bit. We were accompanied by a Mom/calf pod for most of the trip, and they stayed close by to us. In …

    Spouting, Competition, and a Chase Down the Coast

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 25, 2020

    Aloha, Our Monday Wake Up with the Whales Cruise began with spouting whales to our north, so we took a turn to starboard out of the bay and headed that way. After watching a pair of whales spout and sound, we headed towards another pair further out to sea, who also spouted and sounded. Later …

    A Fantastic Weekend for Whales

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 23, 2020

    Aloha, We have lots to report from our weekend of whale watching, so I’ll get right to it. On Friday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise, we saw lots of spouts all around us, but chose to go check out the whales to the north of the bay. The highlight of the cruise was watching …

    Male? Female? How Can You Tell?

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 21, 2020

    Aloha, Our Thursday Wake Up with the Whales Cruise was one of those trips that just kept getting better and better. It was pretty windy and bumpy when we first headed out of the bay, but we were seeing splashes from Humpbacks on the surface out near the horizon. Of course with all that wind, …

    Whales, Wind, and Peduncles

    How Many Species of Whales?

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 19, 2020

    Aloha, Tuesday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise began with a lot of wind. We were seeing a lot of Humpbacks spouting too, but the wind made it difficult to travel to them. Also, as soon as we’d see these spouts, the whales would disappear — no flukes, or multiple blows from any of them. …

    What was this Humpback “Saying”?

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 18, 2020

    Aloha, It was still pretty windy up in Kawaihae during Monday’s Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise, but luckily we found a very active, kind of small (35′) lone Humpback just outside of the harbor. Though we saw spouts from other whales here and there, this guy captured our attention for pretty much the entire time we …
