Aloha, Guests on Tuesday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Anaeho’omalu Bay got a good look at 3 different Humpbacks who surfaced about 100 yards from us several times. They seemed to be on 12 – 15 minute dives, but each time they’d stay on the surface, spouting and seemingly catching their breaths for …
Aloha, Guests joining us on Monday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise got to see 7 different Humpbacks outside of Anaeho’omalu Bay. Some of these whales were pretty active too – we saw lots of pec slapping and tail lobbing. Most of the time, we were watching them from about 300 yards away, but we …
Aloha, Our weekend was dominated by some winter weather. Before it hit, we ran Friday’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise on Alala from Kawaihae. Throughout the course of that cruise, we saw six different Humpbacks, but spent the majority of our time watching a pair who surfaced every 5 – 8 minutes to spout …
Help us celebrate the 50th birthday of our flagship, Seasmoke. Commissioned in 1966 by James Arness (you may remember him as Marshall Matt Dillon from the TV show Gunsmoke), Seaamoke was designed and built by Rudy Choy of C/S/K Catamarans to be the fastest boat on the water. And she was…she won all the races …
Aloha, After Wednesday’s incredible day of whale sightings, we left the harbor on Thursday morning with high hopes. Though we searched up and down the coast for two hours, there wasn’t a Humpback to be seen. A pod of Spinner Dolphins accompanied us in our search for awhile (so we did get to see some …
Aloha, Wednesday was a great day for whale watching on the Kohala Coast. Guests on our Wake up with the Whales Cruise from Kawaihae saw so much surface activity that it’s kind of difficult to summarize (our favorite dilemma). Over the two hour cruise, we saw 12 – 14 different whales. One sub-adult breached too …
Aloha, Guests joining us on Tuesday’s 10:00 Whale Watch from Kawaihae finally got to see some sunshine…and some whales. Shortly after we left the harbor, we saw a spout to our south, so we cruised down towards Hapuna Beach. We found a solo whale just kind of hanging around in the area. We watched him …
Aloha, We ran our Wake up with the Whales Cruise on Alala out of Kawaihae on Monday. Captain Kino took us way up north, and it was worth it when we finally saw a spout ahead of us. We watched as the whale sounded, and then cruised over to where we last saw him, and …
Aloha, Hope your weekend was as dynamic as ours! Friday morning’s Wake up with the Whales Cruise started out pretty slow. Both Seasmoke and Manu Iwa went out on this cruise..and we searched for more than an hour before we finally saw spouts about 3 miles off shore of the Mauna Lani. Both boats headed …
Aloha, Thursday morning’s Whale Watch got rained out, but by the time the Whales and Cocktails at Sunset Cruise was ready to board the storm had passed. Our first Humpback sighting on this cruise was way north of the harbor, when we saw a lone whale’s flukes as he took a dive. We motored over to …
