The
allure of Hawaii is intoxicating. Our youngest state
is home to one of the world’s most active volcanoes,
birthplace of surfing and the hula,and the former seat
of a royal kingdom. But Hawaii’s most unique feature
is its Aloha Spirit: the warmth of the people of
Hawaii. Visit for the first time or return again,
Hawaii welcomes you.

Have a Whale of a Good Time in Hawaii
Humpback whales make their yearly migration to warmer Hawaiian waters every winter and they're a thrill to watch. Although whale watching in Hawaii is touted on all the islands, the protected Auau Channel and shallow warm waters off the west coast of Maui are the best whale-watching locations.
McGregor Point overlooking Maalaea Bay offers excellent vantage points for spotting humpback whales. From November to April, whales can be spotted breaching, fluking and head slapping. Early morning and late evenings are the best times to catch the action. And if you're lucky, you'll spot a calf, too.
The calving season starts in late January and they often come close to shore - the best time to plan a trip.
