We were on an Aloha Condos vacation at the Napili bay resort, lounging on the private beach, soaking up the sun, and just admiring the deep blue ocean. It was a complete surprise to my husband and me to see a mysterious spray of water out among the waves. Someone behind us excitedly said, “there was a whale blow out there.” In awe, I turned back to watch the water. Then, a huge fin raised out of the water and a local on the beach exclaimed, “fin slap!” The smattering of people on the beach were now silent, reverently watching the sea amongst the waves. A huge tail rose completely out of the water and someone quietly said, “tail slap.” At this point, we were transfixed; my husband had the cameral poised. We watched for about an hour and saw more blows, fin and tail slaps, and spy hops (whale’s huge head comes up and spins to get a look at the area). Then, the most sought after sight in whale watching: the breach. It was amazing to see the whale propel its enormous body out of the water, twist, and then fall back down sending a white spray of water high into the sky. We were treated to many more breaches and my husband got a beautiful picture.

It is now the season for humpback whales to frequent Kona’s pristine shoreline; over the last couple of weeks, the number of humpback whales along the Gold Coast has increased substantially.  The breeding grounds have an abundance of whales already this year and their numbers will continue to increase until they peak out during the months of February and March.

Mating groups are beginning to form almost daily offshore and mothers and their calves have been showing up most often in the near shore waters.  In fact, this was an early year for mother and calf sightings which might be good news for the recovery of the whales from their endangered status.
