“It was
a real pleasure joining the Blue Sea Cruises’ Whale Watch and
Glass Bottom Cruise while were vacationing in Kona. The boat provided
ample room to see from virtually anywhere, and there was plenty
of access to the glass-bottomed area. Our hosts took care to point
out sea life as we encountered it. On top of that, the food was
excellent, and the on-board entertainment uplifting. We’ll definitely
return the next time we visit the Big Island.”

"WOAH
MOMMA! 2009 So there I was on a double decker bright blue and
yellow boat (Blue Sea Cruises Inc). Now, as usual I was not looking
forward to the thought of hundreds of tourists crowding round
the one inch of railing to catch a token glimpse of a distant
whale tail. Thankfully these fellas knew what they were doing
and kept the passenger manifest to a very comfortable number.
Just as I was getting used to the space a massive humpback launched
itself sky high mere meters from the boat. There was only one
word: Woah! Unfortunately I missed the shot. It was a good job
that another big fella kindly obliged, close enough for us to
feel the spray. This time I was kind of ready. I then realized
that keeping my SLR mounted did not make the most effective method
to shoot a fast moving whale that can pop up anywhere from the
big blue. Never the less, I may have missed the shot I wanted,
but like Ahab, I¹ll be back. The boat had enough space for four
times the number of people that actually boarded, ample shade,
great commentary, and interactive staff, nice food, and the drinks
were ab fab.
Cheers Blue Sea Cruises.

Sea Cruises, Inc. does not participate in the activity of allowing
swimmers to enter the water to swim with the dolphins. We believe
this activity harms the natural behavior of the dolphins and interrupts
their much-needed rest during the day.
Studies have shown that Spinner Dolphins are especially vulnerable
to human disturbance. Spinners follow a predictable pattern of traveling
off shore in the later afternoon to dive down and feed on deep scattering
layer animals that rise from their midwater regions towards the
surface at night. In the early morning, spinners move in towards
shore, especially on the leeward sides of the Big Island. After
traveling along the coast during the morning, the spinners go into
a rest period during the day. For additional information please
refer to NOAA
Pacific Islands Regional Office.
