Humpback Whale Watching Hawaiian Island on Maui

Weighing 80,000 pounds and can grow to fifty feet long the Humpback whale is only the 5th largest of the whale species. The identifying feature of the humpback whale is their pectoral fins, which are the longest of all the whales. On top of the vast head of this mammal you will find two blowholes that sit side by side allowing them to breathe air at the surface of the water.  Another obvious feature is the humpback’s tubercles. The tubercles are the round bumps found on the lower jaw and on top of the humpback’s head and at least one wire-like hair projecting out of each one. Some scientists think the hairs allow the humpback to identify movement in nearby waters. Researchers have studied the humpback whales for years, and still don’t understand all of the characteristics of this mysterious animal. Sighting a whale is the most exciting experience you can be a part of during your Hawaii vacation. Buzz Hawaii offers several Maui Whale Watching Tours to view these creatures of wonderment.

Humpback whales migrate to the waters of Hawaii every year bringing their song. With special equipment their song can be heard for ten to twenty minutes and may be repeated constantly for hours. Only males sing and the tune changes slowly throughout the season. When changes happen, each whale will sing the new song version. Scientists are not sure the meaning of each tune, but guessing would point to the way whales communicate when the male is fighting for a mate.  Humpback whales migrate each year to the warm Hawaiian Islands to give birth to their calves. Their favorite place to give birth is Maui, making this island the best place to spot a whale. Schedule a Maui Whale Watching Tour for this awesome and educational experience for you and your family with Buzz Hawaii. Spotting a whale is an experience your family will never forget. Buzz Hawaii is the best online vacation service and will help you schedule all of your Hawaii vacation tours with discounted prices.
