Maui is the place to see humpback whales in their natural breeding area. Every year from mid-December through mid-May, the humpback whales make their home in the waters surrounding Maui. The whales migrate close to 3,500 miles (5635 km) from their Alaskan summer feeding waters, to the warm waters of Hawaii where they mate and have their calves.

This tour is seasonal and operates during the whale migrating season from December through to May
