Is whale watching becoming too affordable? Are you finding it a heavily priced experience? Do not despair — take a trip to Maui. With Maui’s warm waters, humpback headquarters from December to April now counts 40,000 members strong. I imagine this must seem all excitement to anyone who is not in on the secret. There are a lot of underwater celebrities in our midst these days, and every last one is eager only to amuse.
You might think you need a ton of money to see the sea from a boat’s front row. In fact, there are many choices that won’t take a bite out of your wallet. Local operators provide tours that are both inexpensive and genuine. Just think of it: a cozy little boat just a stone’s throw from shore, close enough to giants of the sea that you can reach out and touch them. The cost is modest enough for you to be able to afford even bringing along your youngest sister’s best friend’s cousin. These tours are so cheap that you can take the whole fam’ralee.
Now, when is the best time to go? Many claim that the early bird gets the mackerel. It’s first light, when these leviathans are most lively. You may even see a great fin lift off from the water, and you’ll hardly have time to jot down “There she blows!” before the thing is gone. Maui’s waters are normally tranquil and inviting, which is just as well as you might be squeamish about bobbing in a boat on top of them. The guides usually are good fun, making even a history lesson seem like live entertainment. It’s all part of the adventure, at least leaving you convinced that you’ve played a part in some kind of nature show. You needn’t pay through the nose to have fun. Sunscreen and a pair of shades, the price flows in and out with the tide. Remember, it’s not how much you spend but how much enjoyment you get back that counts. It’s a great deal, this whale watching in Maui. Every penny of it will be repaid to you with interest in joys. This is a hot bargain for the future, which will bring smiles and fun in abundance. Now, don’t be slow off the mark. Save these experiences to look back on. The whales await.
