“What is that?” The question was being asked by many passengers who were watching the turquoise glow shimmering in the warm tropical sun. That color was a humpback white pectoral fin reflecting the sun. We all waited with great anticipation as the animal rose slowly, took air and began to move away, followed very quickly by a scarred up male who seemed to be patiently standing by.
When on a marine safari in Hawaii it is always wise to remain vigilant and keep a watchful eye in the waters surrounding the vessel. Our comfortable catamaran affords a wide and spacious upper viewing deck making it very easy to walk from side to side and gaze into the beautiful blue water.
It was a ‘mugging’ today. The whales chose to come over and spend their valuable time with whale lovers old and young. The amount of animals in the waters surrounding Maui makes it very easy to find whales to spend time with. But it is the call of the individual that makes a close encounter one that will never be forgotten. Can hardly wait for tomorrow!
