Aloha, I can hardly believe I’m writing these words…Tuesday we ran our FINAL Whale Watch Cruise of the 2020/2021 Season — a Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Kawaihae Harbor. And just like our opening day cruise this season, our closing day cruise brought us close-by sightings of a Humpback whale. A guest …
Aloha, We set a course to the south out of Kawaihae Harbor on Saturday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise, though we kept “our heads on a swivel” so we wouldn’t miss seeing any of the last remaining Humpbacks along the coastline. We eventually found Mom Humpback and her little calf offshore of Hapuna Beach. …

Aloha, Guests on Wednesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise spent some time with Momma Humpback and her calf. We originally learned that they were in our area when another boat called us to share the news that they had seen these whales to our north. It took us awhile to find the pair, but …
Aloha, Monday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise was FULL of activity. As soon as we left the harbor, we were surrounded by a pod of about 3 dozen Spinner Dolphins. After letting them play in our wake for awhile, we headed out to see a whale who had spouted at the surface and sounded. …
Aloha, We only operated one dedicated Whale Watch Cruise this past weekend — our Saturday Wake Up with the Whales Cruise. As our season is drawing to a close we really appreciate every sighting – especially because we never really know when it’s going to be the last time we see a Humpback until next …
Aloha, Guests on Friday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise were met and escorted just outside of the harbor by a pod of about 40 Spinner Dolphins. After cruising south with them for awhile, we stopped the boat to deploy the hydrophone. We heard a few whales singing (which boded well for future sightings). Later …
Aloha, Guests on our Private Snorkel Cruise on Thursday spent the first part of the cruise watching a lone whale. This whale originally caught our attention by breaching, but we only saw that one time– the rest of the time, we watched him surface and spout. He was very distinctive looking as he was very …
Aloha, On Wednesday’s Wake Up with the Whales Cruise Captain Ryan caught a glimpse of a spout way out to sea. It was a small spout, so we figured the whale might have been a calf, but at least while we watched, we saw no evidence of Mom (maybe our whale was a lone yearling). Anyway, …
Aloha, We traveled a ways out to sea on Monday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise to watch a Mom/Calf/Escort pod. Once we arrived at the area where we thought they’d be, we went into idle and waited. Sure enough, these whales surfaced close by, and then they kept surfacing closer and closer. At one …
