Whale Watching in Hawaii is one of the most popular activities on the Hawaiian Islands. More than 5000 endangered humpback whales migrate from the cold waters of Alaska each year to mate and calve in tropical Hawaiian waters during the winter months between December and April.

Whales sightings guaranteed or come again free!

WHALE WATCH CRUISES BEGIN DECEMBER 15th - MARCH 31st
The Endangered Humpback Whales
During their annual sojourn here, these whales exhibit many interesting and acrobatic behaviors that can easily be seen and enjoyed from the numerous whale watch tours available throughout the Hawaiian Islands. The name humpback describes the motion they make as they arch theirback out of the water in preparation for a dive.

Humpbacks often breach high out of the water, and then slap the water as they come back down. Sometimes they twirl around while breaching. This behavior may be merely for play, or may be used to loosen skin parasites, or have some unknown social meaning.
Educational and Fun!
Learn from the naturalist onboard as we encounter wild dolphins, sea turtles, manta rays, whales and other marine life. Be serenaded by the songs of the humpback, captured live with our underwater hydrophone.

Excellent photo opportunities abound. You will be served tropical fruits and snacks, juice or soda.

Picture of the ship Body Glove on Website http://www.hawaiiactive.com/activities/bigisland-whalewatch.html gave me the misimpression that the ship would travel (at least partially)under sail,but there was not a sail to be seen during the cruse.

Great fun and a lot of good information to learn about the whales and other marine life. We were able to see a mom and her calf, plus a male escort and the calf was very inquisitive and entertaining!

The cruise was a little long at three hours (2 or 2.5 hours would have been better).
