Maui Whale Watching Season

Humpback whales migrate each year to Hawaii from cold Alaskan waters where they live to give birth and mate in warm waters, where they can raise their newborn calves. The migration takes place over a period of months. Yearly whale sightings in Maui begin in fall late, usually in the months of September and October, and the whales continue to arrive in Hawaii through November. The whales stay in the warm waters of Maui through spring, and many whale watching tours will guarantee whale sightings during an open water voyage through mid-May with peak season usually considered to take place in February and March.

Maui Whale Watching Tours

The ultimate way to see a whale up close is on a whale watching tour in Maui. Amazingly in Hawaii, boats are permitted within 100 yards of a whale, considerably closer than most shore watchers will get. Whales are known to be curious by nature, and they often approach closer than the 100 yard limit set for boats. Pacific Whale Foundation whale watching tours in Maui features a variety of eco-adventures, which depart daily from both Ma'alaea and Lahaina Harbors and run from November to May annually. Pacific Whale Foundation whale watches are guided by Certified Marine Naturalists who provide special insights into these magnificent creatures. Their Maui whale watching tours also offer the opportunity to use underwater hydrophones to listen to whales.
