    More Wind but a Wild Whale Watch

    More Wind but a Wild Whale Watch

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 28, 2023

    Aloha, Guests joining us on Tuesday’s Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise from Anaeho’omalu Bay had a crazy time on the ocean. Just like what happened with us on Monday, when we got to work the winds weren’t really blowing all that hard, but by the time we boarded all of our guests the trade winds had …

    Wild and Windy

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 27, 2023

    Aloha, It sure has been a windy winter, and Monday found us right in the thick of the wind again. When we got to the bay on Monday morning at 6:30, the winds were blowing, but not at any out-of-the-ordinary intensity, so we got the boat ready to go and boarded our guests for our …

    A “Two-fer” Report

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 23, 2023

    Aloha, Guests on Wednesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise got to see a lot of dorsal fins, and a lot of Humpback flukes from various adult whales who were just cruising around the area at a relaxed pace. We also spent some quality time with 2 different Mom/Calf pods — these whales were relaxing …

    Whoa Baby

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 21, 2023

    Aloha, We didn’t have to travel a lot at all during Tuesday’s Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise. We spent most of our trip with a Mom, her calf, and an escort just south of the harbor. Baby could only hold his breath for about 5 minutes at a time, so we saw him really frequently, and …

    An Anomaly for Sure

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 20, 2023

    Aloha, Monday was a fantastic day for watching Humpbacks. We found a Mom and calf before we even got to the mouth of Anaeho’omalu Bay at the beginning of our Wake Up with the Whales Cruise. Baby was interested in our boat and Mom let him surface just about 20 feet from us. After about …

    Calf Throws a Cute Little Tantrum

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 19, 2023

    Aloha, We braved the rainy weather on Friday for our Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Anaeho’omalu Bay. Guests joining us spent some time with two Mom/Calf pods. The second pod was accompanied by an escort — and there may have been an escort lurking beneath the first pod, but if there were, we …

    Singles Mingle

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 16, 2023

    Aloha, Guests aboard our Thursday Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise had a completely different experience than did the guests on our Wednesday Whale Watch Cruise. If we could compare Wednesday’s Cruise to attending a daycare center, we have to say that Thursday’s Cruise was more like spending time at a Single’s Bar. Throughout the course of …

    A Little Cuddle Time

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 15, 2023

    Aloha, The theme for Wednesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Anaeho’omalu Bay was Moms and their calves. We encountered our first Mom/Baby duo south of the bay. These two weren’t all that active so after watching them (and a few adult Humpbacks who were spouting further away from us), we decided to turn …

    Wait…It Gets Better

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 14, 2023

    Aloha, Our Tuesday Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise from Kawaihae was one of those cruises that just kept getting better and better. We found 2 Humpbacks just after exiting the harbor. Initially, these two were on 20 minute dive cycles, but since we weren’t seeing much else around us, Captain Jason made the decision to stick …

    A Bit of a Recap

    Humpback Whale Sightings and Statistics|February 13, 2023

    Aloha, If you read my Monday post, you know I spent a lot of it talking about the wind and how it might affect the whales. So much that I didn’t get around to telling you what we’ve been seeing all weekend long. The highlight of Saturday’s Mid-Morning Whale Watch Cruise from Kawaihae was watching …
