For a truly exciting and once in a lifetime experience the island of Maui is the place to head to see the great humpback whales, around one thousand of which travel four thousand miles from Alaska to the archipelago to mate and give birth between the months of November and March. If its whale watching you want then Hawaii is the place to be, if you want to see the Hawaiian humpback whale in its winter home to which it returns to give birth. The months between December and April are all grand months to see this wonderful, creature so there are plenty of whale watching Hawaii opportunities.
