You start getting the idea that we here at Live Maui Webcasts and Video are quite adventurous folk! A few days ago, one of our producers, Thomas, went out for an early morning (6:30AM!) standup paddle in North Kihei.
When he got back home, he was so excited, it prompted me to ask, “what’s up? Why the excitement?” I mean, last week he encountered and swam with a pod of spinner dolphins, the day before he SUP-ed with a bunch of turtles, so what was it going to be this time?
“I have no idea what I saw out there today, but they must have been some kind of melon head whales or something! I was right next to them! A little freaky, but so amazing at the same time!”
He did some frantic research the next few days and just today, lo and behold came across this article in the Honolulu Adviser.

KIHEI, Maui — Members of the Marine Mammal Stranding Network were standing by at Mai Poina Oe Iau Beach Park today to keep an eye on a pod of seven or so pygmy killer whales that was lingering unusually close to shore.
That just goes to show you, when you decide to have your wedding or honeymoon on Maui, you never really know what magical things you might encounter! Imagine spotting a mammal that scientists have never really been able to study because of their remote nature! Of course, we hope they are not distressed and will find their way back to deeper waters.
That’s Maui for you. Whether it’s discovering the perfect Mai Tai, learning about Hawaiian Culture at a Luau or exploring this one of a kind ecosystem, you’ll find something that will change your life forever! We look forward to seeing you here!
