It’s not too late for a front row seat to one of the biggest shows in town! Whale watching season in Hawaii runs through May, so there’s still time to catch the breaching and pec-slapping of these behemoth visitors to Hawaii, and guests staying at the beachfrontOutrigger Royal Kahana or Outrigger Napili Shores on Napili Bay can witness these magnificent sights, just offshore.
Each year, as many as 10,000 humpback whales are said to make their annual 3,000-mile-long journey from the North Pacific to warm Hawaiian seas to give birth and mate. While visiting the islands, these majestic creatures, some weighing up to 45 tons, are often seen in spectacular acrobatic displays. These playful behemoths favor the calm waters along the West Maui coast, which provide spectators lots of opportunities to spot whales slapping and rolling close to shore.
“If you’re considering a trip to Hawaii, or have always wanted to see endangered humpback whales in their natural habitat, now is the time to book a stay at Outrigger Royal Kahana or Outrigger Napili Shores,” said Teri Orton, vice president, condominium resort marketing for Outrigger’s Condominium Collection. “For families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, our oceanfront Maui condos provide unbeatable settings to view whales breaching, diving, and occasionally cavorting with their young calves. It's simply amazing!"
At Outrigger Royal Kahana, get a front-row seat on the beach or a spectacular high-rise view from an oceanfront or ocean view unit. At Outrigger Napili Shores, guests can see whales from the resort's lookout at the ocean's edge. It's a tradition to ring the “whale bell” when sighting a “spouter!”
