Most Epic Maui Whale Watch EVER - part 2

[@Godfather9814]

It’s incredible how an animal that grows to be so massive but yet is probably one of the sweetest things in the ocean!

[@markwdavis]

Could tip tht RIB with just the slightest touch of his fin, but he is soooooo gentle. They are amazing animals!

[@sandibaker5298]

It wanted you to pet it!!! Humpbacks are one of the most social and loving of all whales!!♥️ Thanks for sharing.

[@colleendito2046]

Ive whale watched in Hawaii 3 or 4x. It was the most remarkable experience ive ever had. I love it. I think they know theyre being watched and put on a show, one came so close I touched it. So awesome

[@LisaDaigle]

Gods beautiful creatures so beautiful and graceful. We went on a whale watch in Maui , most amazing trip I've ever taken and i have a recording of them talking to one another, the girl on the boat put the microphone in the water so we could hear them. I was in amazement with my beautiful whales. 😍 😊

[@jeralynlovato3666]

7 years ago, my husband and I were vacationing on Maui. We also took the whale watching tour. We were on a 50 foot boat with 5 other watchers and the captain. I leaned over the side of the boat and I was able to touch the whale just as you experienced. The whale was just as curious as we were. It was awesome to be so close to the whale. So few people have experienced what you two and myself went through.

[@celestelopez7061]

You r so lucky.I hope someday when I am older I have the same experience as you 😆

[@darreldsheppard4288]

Grade A contact man. I spent three years on Maui and I used to watch that on a regular basis sitting on the beach lot of us take it for granted it's a pretty amazing thing to see.

[@LindaEll89]

This is so awesome, looks like it is really looking for contact with humans because it's so gentle and relaxed.

[@sandramorey2529]

A group of us were watching with binoculars from I think it is MacGreggor or Mackenna point out of Ma'alae'a on the way to Lahaina. The whale bus hangs out there. Anyway, not much to see until a mom and baby came close in to the cliff. Baby came up & showed its baleen. Mom came up, turned sideways and there was her big eye looking right at us. That's the best I've ever seen, but this was really something. Consider yourself lucky.

[@pjlibrandi4516]

Unbelievably SO SO COOL! What a great honor to be that close! WOW

[@cerena]

I went whale watching on the east coast and it was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Thanks for sharing this!

[@jenmcampa]

So magical when you actually witness these beautiful creatures in personal. 😊

[@xxxSilentNinjAxxx1]

What a magnificent gentle giant.

[@teenieteenez]

What an amazing experience. How very blessed you were to have had that opportunity.

[@WahkeenaSitka]

#1 reason why I can't wait to get back to Hawaii this winter.

[@kellykailua]

What an amazing experience! Awesome footage, lucky guys!!!

[@lenabena492]

Wow, AMAZING! God's beautiful creature!!!!

[@johnconservative469]

They have such huge brains! I wonder if they know they are being photographed somehow? It almost looks like they do!

[@cherieswatekfedder7895]

That was AMAZING!! This is definitely on my bucket list !!

[@eva-mariavonbronk5186]

Don't expect to see whales that close! It can happen, but it's rare!

[@stephanief2010]

Soo cool! Nature at its purest! Just beautiful!!

[@10michelle01]

I don't know if I would be more excited and amazed, or more scared he would flip the boat over! Great video :)

[@lisa9867]

He was saying "Hey could you give me a hand and pull off these barnacles?" I would have reached out and tried to get a full of them off of him.

[@carollynnenarahealy6919]

So, so awesome* We are so blessed every winter here on Maui to be able to see these awesome beings*

[@jenhendricks183]

I would've absolutely lost my mind!! This is incredible!! 😍😍😍

[@Dinhfamily-y9i]

This is amazing. It brings tears of joy

[@banry1174]

Man your laugh is contagious 😂😂😂

[@odalysmartinez7479]

That whale is feel connected with you guys, thats a Beautiful Tremendus Gift guys 👍❤🙏🙏 🤲Namaste🤲

[@mariarohmer2374]

I love that you said thank you. I love whale people!💙

[@EQOAnostalgia]

They showoff on purpose right? Like HEY HUMANS, look at me!

[@eva-mariavonbronk5186]

Wow! That must have been an unbelievable experience!

[@Harpazo_to_Yeshua]

Every time I see a whale video like this I am like "If I were there, I'd be in that water. No way I am letting this experience pass me by! Swim with the whale!" :)

[@zoesdada8923]

Man I hate that those barnacles grow on the whales like that. I'd like to spend the rest of my life scraping them off.

[@LisaIsHappyToBeSane]

Me too

[@juliew1426]

It supposedly doesn't bother them at all.

[@HettiedeKorteDiplomaat]

Me too.

[@amitojvirk7026]

They drop themselves while in journeys

[@melime2010]

awww so cute and beautiful.. you were really lucky~~!! thanks for sharing~!

[@Thepurfektdrug]

I read on another KZbin viedo that whales sometimes get that close because they want us humans to scrape off the barnacles. Almost like they are asking for a back scratch. 😀

[@Godfather9814]

And who wouldn’t want too 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@rickicole5080]

*i don't think it's possible to be more thoroughly "mugged" than that! WOW! :D*

[@rsgirrl]

I was there on jan 14 jus got home today I love Maui I love the whales

[@JohnO318]

I would definitely be shaking and loving it at the same time.

[@blank5390]

Just beautiful and amazing!

[@too2itchy]

That was definitely epic! It was almost like being on the boat. I've always wanted to see them up close, and thought I'd finally gotten my chance last January, on a trip to visit family in Maui who were living there at the time. Got off the plane, went to bed, and the next morning was making arrangements to fly back to Oregon with the whole family after finding out my brother's baby had stage 4 cancer. I never got the chance to set my feet on the sand. :( Unfortunately, I don't know when I'll be able to afford Hawaii without the free stay. At least I know who I'll hire for whale watching if I do!

[@brendalozano6367]

Amazing footage!

[@Africa-ky1bg]

When the whale was extending his pectoral fin to you ~ I wish you would have had your gloved hand ready to pet him. It's hard to balance: taking pictures - vs. video- vs. being in the moment & interacting- moments. Looks like an awesome whale watching experience overall.

[@darkprose]

Unless you’re involved in legitimate scientific research, you shouldn’t attempt to touch a whale (or any marine mammal). In many waters, human-whale interactions are regulated by law. You can’t prevent a whale from approaching you, but you can control your own behavior. www.fisheries.noaa.gov/topic/marine-life-viewing-guidelines

[@cacatr4495]

I'm not having any trouble watching other videos between attempts to watch this one, but this one keeps saying Server Connection Lost, yet I can immediately watch anything else. FYI.

[@mchellefloyd]

Thanks for sharing...this was BEEEEE-uuutiful!!! :)

[@fluitwieler]

A fantastic encounter do you have with the whale, I`m thrilled.

[@sig.bodiej]

The best experience ever

[@auntiesnorkel7436]

I am still giddy from the experience.

[@SteveConsigny]

Wow that was amazing!!!!

[@KarenBraccoAguayo]

I live on Maui & I have never been this close to a whale. :) I wish! But, I am wondering, where is the Mama? Where is the pod?

[@xx-noodle-xx]

What tour company is this?

[@clemenciaramirez3139]

The ir abre so cute🤩🤩

[@nicolelahutsky1181]

That was totally awesome

[@stablebum]

Totally awesome!

[@acosta37]

is he lost? where is his parents

[@sandervw123]

JWZ Baia in the sea

[@rolfyboy8]

Were you allowed to get close to the whales? I read that you shouldn't be within 100 yards of the Humpback whale.

[@ryanmoeller3308]

rolfyboy8 You are supposed to maintain a certain distance, but the whales are allowed to come explore what is in their home. :)

[@rolfyboy8]

ryan moeller You mean you're allowed to let the whales come near you?

[@ryanmoeller3308]

Well, you can't really stop them and you don't want to turn on the motor when they're that close

[@monstercatexploitz4361]

Lucky you ! i went there but they never come with us at the boat

[@mimimas974]

WE in Réunion island in Indian Ocean, watch ans swim with them Take a look at my numerous videos about whales

[@juliew1426]

You said this is a baby? Wonder where Mama was.

[@montemaranodiane3168]

Beautiful. I hope you didn't purposefully ride up to it I'm sure you know that is not allowed. But of course if a whale swims up to you that's different.

[@kathleenhaskard]

heaven!

[@djane5391]

Linda linda😘😍😘

[@LisaIsHappyToBeSane]

Probably wanted you to bet him. You was in snorkel gear and didn't get in the water with him? What's wrong with you?

[@duoducks]

…where was Mom???guessing the baby thought the zodiac was her...

[@sherreescott8147]

I love this who is watching who

[@delka55]

Amazing

[@JWN154]

This guy is fucking crazy

[@daveduncan9034]

I watched another video and the tour guide said "dont touch the whale",,any scholars know if its ok to touch them? Human nature would make me want to touch it!

[@andreaskalova2411]
