Devon and I had a close encounter with a mother Humpback Whale and her baby. Distance is difficult to judge on video on the water, and you cannot tell just how close these were to us. Devon said he could have reached out and touched the baby! The mom gave me the impression of a freight train coming through! This is one of the most incredible experiences I have had in my whole time here in Hawaii. I personally have had up close and personal experiences with Humpbacks four times! This was simply exhilarating! I now live on Oahu and treasure my memories and experiences on Maui.
