We had an amazing time and saw soooo many whales. Many came very close and seemed to want to entertain us. It truly was spectacular. Nolan was a great guide and had a lot of knowledge about the whales and the island. We would definitely go again. Highly recommend!

Aloha, Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback about your Whale Watch Cruise. We're so happy to read that you got to see so many Humpbacks and that they approached the boat (that doesn't happen every trip...and it's up to the whales to choose to make the approach)! We're also happy that you enjoyed the information provided by Nolan. We know there are a lot of activity providers to choose from when you're on the island and we're honored you chose to join us aboard and that we've earned your recommendation. Mahalo and A Hui Hou
