Occurred on February 20, 2018 / Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii, USA
Info from Licensor: "My husband and I went on a two-hour whale watching trip with Ultimate Whale Watch departing from Lahaina Harbor on Maui. Ultimate Whale Watch uses zodiac type rafts, so you’re right on the water. Our captain spotted two North Pacific Humpback whales, so he maneuvered the boat as close as he could. Those two whales disappeared, but this huge female came out of nowhere and approached our boat. She stayed with us for about 30 minutes, doing all sorts of tricks. She got under the boat several times and pushed up on it (scratching her back?), rolled over, stuck her head out of the water to take a look at us, splashed us with her spray. It was an amazing and unforgettable experience!"
