class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In fact, there are plenty of areas on Maui where humpbacks can frequently be seen from the shore during whale season. The scenic McGregor Point lookout west of Maalaea and the beaches of Kaanapali, Kihei and Wailea are also great spots to see whales.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-best-time-to-view-whales-in-maui\"><\/span>What is the best time to view whales in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Whale watching season in Maui typically runs from December to May, weather permitting. However, the best time to view whales is usually during the spring and fall months when they are feedings. You can watch these amazing creatures up close as they feed on selectively caught species of prey near shorelines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"which-side-of-maui-is-best-for-whale-watching\"><\/span>Which side of Maui is best for whale watching?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>On Maui, the south side beaches (Kihei and Wailea) and west side (especially Kapalua) are the best areas to see them. Sometimes the whales come close to shore (let&#39;s say 100 yards), but most of the time you&#39;ll be seeing them from a distance.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-you-see-whales-from-land-in-maui\"><\/span>Can you see whales from land in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Best spots to see whales from the land: Maalaea Bay: This large protected area of water is perfect for humpbacks to feel safe giving birth, mating, and just playing. This is the best area in the state to see whales on the surface.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-you-see-whales-from-the-shore-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Can you see whales from the shore in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>On the island of Hawaii, whales are often seen along the shores of the Kohala Coast, as well as Hilo Bay on the east side of the island. The Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site is another great viewing spot, with its sweeping, elevated views near Kawaihae Harbor.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-time-of-day-are-whales-most-active-in-maui\"><\/span>What time of day are whales most active in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>What is the best time for whale watching in Hawaii? Anytime is the best time! But, if you&#39;re looking for the best scenic times, early morning or sunset is considered prime. 11 am to 3 pm yields the best overhead light.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-time-of-day-are-whales-most-active\"><\/span>What time of day are whales most active?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Whales are never diurnal, but they can be crepuscular. This means they are most active during twilight hours which are both before sunrise and after sunset.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-whale-watching-in-maui-better-in-morning-or-afternoon\"><\/span>Is whale watching in Maui better in morning or afternoon?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Thankfully the west Maui mountains block most winds, giving us a calm leeward setting for whale watching on most days. Because of this, afternoon whale watching is a great option if you book your tour after a morning at the beach. The last time for whale watching tours is sunset.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"where-are-the-whales-in-maui\"><\/span>Where are the whales in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The best place to see whales in Maui is the Maui Nui Basin. It&#39;s estimated that more than half of the humpback whale population migrates to the Maui Nui Basin for breeding every winter. The Maui Nui Basin refers to the waters between Maui, Lanai, and Kaho&#39;olawe and is a protected sanctuary for the whales.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-is-whale-poop-worth\"><\/span>How much is whale poop worth?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The current rate for ambergris is about $35 per gram, depending on its quality (a gram of gold runs about $61 per gram, as of October 2020).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-whale-vomit-so-precious\"><\/span>Why is whale vomit so precious?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ambergris is very rare because not every sperm whale poo includes lumps. Also, the numbers of sperms are much lower these days. The odour of ambergris is one of its clearest identifying traits. Whale vomit has been used in some expensive perfumes as it allows the scent to last longer.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-whale-sperm-so-valuable\"><\/span>Why is whale sperm so valuable?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Kemp, the author of &#34;Floating Gold: the Natural (and Unnatural) History of Ambergris&#34; (University Of Chicago Press, 2012), notes that the stuff commands a high price because &#34;only one percent of the 350,000 sperm whales can actually make it,&#34; he told ABC News. &#34;Because it&#39;s so rare, it&#39;s very valuable.&#34;Feb 1, 2013<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"who-buys-whale-vomit\"><\/span>Who buys whale vomit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Perfume companies use ambergris to preserve the smell of their fragrances. Humans have used ambergris for over 1,000 years. Uses include medicine, celebrations, and food, according to the University of Chicago. For the fishermen, they plan to continue their fishing even with their million-dollar find.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-whale-poop-used-for\"><\/span>What is whale poop used for?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Perfumers covet a rare kind of whale poop known as ambergris. Though it develops in the intestine of sperm whales, it produces a prized scent used in high-end fragrances.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-do-they-use-whale-sperm-for\"><\/span>What do they use whale sperm for?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ambergris, a solid waxy substance originating in the intestine of the sperm whale (Physeter catodon). In Eastern cultures ambergris is used for medicines and potions and as a spice; in the West it was used to stabilize the scent of fine perfumes.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-does-whale-poop-look-like-on-the-beach\"><\/span>What does whale poop look like on the beach?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Fecal samples are observed by color, odor, texture, and buoyancy. The fecal samples may appear green-brownish, fishy smelling, lots of mucus and mostly floating. Flatulence has been recorded in whales. The feces of krill-eating whales is red in colour because krill is rich in iron.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-they-make-perfume-out-of-whale-vomit\"><\/span>Do they make perfume out of whale vomit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Commonly referred to as \u201cwhale vomit,\u201d ambergris is an intestinal slurry that comes from the guts of sperm whales. And, yes, it&#39;s a highly coveted perfume ingredient. In fact, chunks of it can sell for thousands or even millions of dollars.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-does-whale-vomit-smell-like\"><\/span>What does whale vomit smell like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>They can be covered with a soft white layer that looks a bit like cotton wool. They may appear hard or waxy, and sometimes have objects trapped within. And a smell that has been described as \u201ca cross between squid and farmyard manure\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-whale-breath-stink\"><\/span>Does whale breath stink?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The odor is blunt and pungent, almost a taste in the mouth, an unholy mingling of fart and fishiness\u2014hundreds of gallons of air forcefully expelled from its lungs, laced with the fumes of half-digested krill, hundreds of pounds of these slow-dissolving crustaceans fermenting in its stomach.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-does-a-whale-fart-smell-like\"><\/span>What does a whale fart smell like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThe smell resembles neither bad breath nor a land mammal&#39;s fart,\u201d says Amy Tudor. It was more like a combination of herring breath and the funk of rotten salad. It&#39;s quite bizarre and difficult to describe.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-dolphins-smell-fear\"><\/span>Can dolphins smell fear?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Dolphins have no sense of smell Dolphins have olfactory tracts, but lack olfactory nerves.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-whales-smell-fishy\"><\/span>Do whales smell fishy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Perhaps some chemical in fish or krill also makes it into whales&#39; bloodstreams, giving their exhalations fishy odors. Whale species all over the world have fish breath. The term &#34;stinky minke&#34; is a nickname minke whales earned for their odor of rotten fish. Right whales reek, too.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-whale-breath\"><\/span>What is whale breath?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>All right so now get nice and comfortable close your eyes or keep them open whatever feels right to<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" marginheight=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zohyQQlsejA?autoplay=0&#038;fs=0&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;showinfo=0&#038;rel=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;start=0&#038;end=0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-whales-smell-blood\"><\/span>Can whales smell blood?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Smell.
