We Actually Saw Whales!!!

It was early in the season, but we wanted to make an attempt to see whales off of the Kona coast! Our female crew was amazing at getting us safely through the choppy water, and they were willing to take us as far south as needed to see whales! But it wasn’t long before we actually spotted a humpback whale! We got close enough to take some spectacular pictures! What a thrill!! On our way back, we spotted the whale again!! The crew was also very kind and helpful to our seasick friend! I would highly recommend this adventure!
