We departed for our whale watch about 15 minutes late at 16:45 tonight. We had 15 happy whale watchers on the boat ready to embark and enjoy the wonderful whales. We came out into the Maunalua Bay and went east towards China walls/ Spitting cave area we made it as far as our famous dive site Sea cave when we had to turn around. The weather was quite windy today but no one threw up, congratulations! We went until about 17:35 without seeing a spout but patience paid off and we were rewarded with some giant spouts and a lovely whale tail. We were blessed with a double rainbow and another amazing Hawaiian sunset. We got back to the dock about 18:45 with the relief to almost all on the boat. A big thanks to our whale watchers tonight for being good sports and coming out with us on one of the roughest days this year, and while maintaining high spirits and positive attitudes the entire trip. We appreciate it and  hope you come back again soon!
