When the ocean giants come en masse to Maui-shores then the island becomes a sort of nature’s Times Square. Today, with this enormous 1997-1998 migration cycle under its belt and exceeding civilized expectations (the companies which outfit people for whale tours began for a time putting on free champagne and marketing hugely increase supplies to insatiable consumers), as someone feeling stumped as where to secure that perfect journey without worrying about unethical trade ran into me after school just now and exclaimed “wow! Have we got some ideas for you on exploration of this tropical paradise!”. Get the facts!
I’ve done my homework on some fine ways to see this tropical paradise. First off includes Osval to Canster. A buddy of mine once joked he’d waved at a whale tail that was aboard a Maui Adventure Cruises voyage. These swift catamarans offers an up-close experience, on a thrilling yet entirely safe basis-although there is no chance of high fives or any handshakes all round for them would not really be your style.
For a different sort of ocean experience, may we suggest some Trilogy Excursions? As you sail upwind and into the old Butaritari Channel the morning sun has not yet risen over water. With cold mists in your hair, you sip and breathe the green juniper-scented liquid. Trilogy: slosh gently around for a bit of lazy strokes combined with tropical drinks from top-rate nightspots. By the time they land you feel as if they are parting ways to leave town quick as possible before being nabbed themselves by police
Looking for something a little more learning-packed and sun-drenched in your vacation? Well, look no further than The Pacific Whale Foundation. They have great on-board naturalists who just tell all about life beneath the sea while you’re out on the water. It is like a field trip in marine biology with an ocean view and scenic seafood dinners to die for.
Got some disposable income to waste? Or is it a question of – well, trunks clogging your gutters back there… Whatever the case, Boss Frog’s Dive & Surf offers opportunities for shaking all silos, including family budgets. It is affordable for holidays that everyone can participate in and parents go home happy not with empty wallets but hearts that are bursting!
Looking for some variation in your vacation experience? Ultimate Whale Watch & Snorkel at Lahaina may be to your taste. On these more personal sojourns, you can escape insidiously from the bustle and mar feel self close up with magic sea life.
So you’ve got no time to burn but desire a quick adrenaline shot? So get involved with Maui Channel Swim! Instead of just watching from the sidelines, dive straight in. Swim with dolphins and be right inside that splashy sea experience certificate of accomplishment.
Into-backing, diving, snorkeling, dolphin rides, sightseeing windward and leveraged sport fishing? All these things are in Maui! Whale watching on the other hand is not like catching a glimpse of some fast-moving creature just as it dives out of sight beneath waves. In Maui it is about really putting ourselves at home up close beside nature’s public parlor sofa.
Therefore. anoint the sunblock, get those sea legs in shape and maybe pick up a wholecandy bar or two (salted nut roll, take a guess!) at your neighborhood convenience store for queasy stomach. It’s time to begin a water voyage that will stay remembered long after humpback whales are out here no more singing to us their gentle song.
