WHALE WATCHING (Seasonal between December 15 - April 15)
Each year, from late December through April, humpback whales migrate to the warm waters of Hawaii to calve, mate and rear their young. The shallow waters surrounding Maui are known as the "cradle of the humpback" due to the fact that a large number of humpbacks are raised in this area.
Calves are born weighing in at around 3000 pounds and grow at a rate of 200 pounds a day during the first few weeks of life. The adults have been known to reach 45 feet in length and may weigh up to 40 tons.
The humpback whale has been protected from whaling in U.S. waters since 1966 and is presently listed as an endangered species. Education is our most effective tool in saving this species from extinction. Viewing these majestic creatures from our whale watching boats is not only one of the most exciting things you will ever do, but narration by our naturalists will enlighten you to the life of the humpback whales.
Highlights:
Four Winds II combines a whale watch with a snorkel excursion every afternoon during whale season. Not only will you be able to view the activity of the humpback (like awesome breaches, peck and tail slaps and more!), but you'll spend a lazy afternoon snorkeling and water sliding while our crew grills up the best burgers and chicken on Maui and serves you your choice of beverages. This is one of the best trips of it's kind!
Departs: Daily 1:30 pm. -5:00 PM, Check-in at 1:00 PM. Maalaea Harbor, Slip #55
Includes:
Beer, Wine, Soda, Snorkel Gear and Instruction, Hydrophone,and Whale Narration. Lunch can be included for an additional fee.
