We really enjoyed our kayaking trip with Maui Ocean Sports. Turns out that my husband and I were the only two on the trip that morning, so we set out with our terrific guide Seth to try to see some humpback whales. As we paddled past the reef, we saw many turtles, then we started to see a couple of whale spouts out in the distance. We paddled out and got within 150 yards or so of a couple whales and a calf! They put on quite a show for us! A truly amazing and unforgettable experience. Seth was a great guide, passing along interesting facts about the whales and also telling us about his work as a kayak guide in Alaska during the summer months. The wind came up a bit while we were out with the whales so the trip back in was challenging, but worth every paddle stroke. Thanks to Seth for a great day on the water!
