How was it? bimbum 01-26-2006, 12:33 AM is that when those big boats come in from the mainland with US tourists? :P I keed I keed Have fun tonight Beastie! See ya at D&B's bumbye :) MauiM3Mania 01-26-2006, 02:00 PM I've probably been on a half dozen whale watches, both out of Kona and Ma'alaea.... besides the first one, all have been with visitors. Are whale watches popular on Oahu? They are thick now. I can watch them from my living room (of course they are a mile away!!) 808Cardinal87 01-26-2006, 02:45 PM It depends on where you go out of and what boat you take. Out of Oahu on a dinner cruise = not so good. Out of Maui on a zodiak = good. Out on our boat off of Sandy's a few weekends ago = best. :D Evill1 01-27-2006, 10:40 PM When is the whale season ending? I am in San Diego but am coming back towards the end of Feb. Will I still be able to take a trip to Maui and see some whales???? MauiM3Mania 01-27-2006, 10:43 PM When is the whale season ending? I am in San Diego but am coming back towards the end of Feb. Will I still be able to take a trip to Maui and see some whales???? No doubt... April and beyond it gets sketchy. Bookwith the right operations and if you don't see any whales, they refund your money. The thing is, the whale could be a half mile away. :( The Beastmaster 01-27-2006, 11:10 PM Are you serious! Seeing a whale 1/2 mile away counts? Do they issue you binoculars? :mad IslandS62 01-27-2006, 11:44 PM Anna and I usually hit Maui in March and there are still whales to be seen. We'll probably try to get on a ww cruise one of these days. We did a sailboat cruise in Kona and it was spectacular...esp. compared to the catamaran cruises on Oahu.

I've always seen em up close and not so personal. thrlls 01-28-2006, 04:49 AM I see them every now and then on my way home or early mornings as I drive pass the Blow Hole. I just don't see the attraction....it's just a big fish! <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008_ZNfox000' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/16/16_5_21.gif' alt='Whale' border=0></a> m3littleone 01-28-2006, 11:02 AM I have seen plenty of whales off the coastline here on the Big Island. |
