Winter in Maui may be just another day in paradise — warm sunshine, sandy beaches and incredibly lush foliage — but it also means peak whale season. With majestic humpback whales flocking to Maui’s shores Dec. 15–May 15, Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea created a variety of ways for guests to get the most out of this fleeting natural occurrence.

Choose from private whale watching experiences with professional photographers, or enjoy well-timed watersports provided by the hotel. Get a workout in while watching whales play from the state-of-the-art fitness studio or book a room with an unbeatable view.

Check out the resort’s list of whale-watching experiences here and plan for a fun winter getaway. If all else fails, you can always speak with the concierge team to map out the best viewing experience for you. They can customize anything to best suit your travel and whale-watching experience.

“It’s hard to imagine that Maui can become even more special, but every winter brings these gentle giants to the waters just beyond the Resort’s shores. It doesn’t get much better than experiencing whales up close and personal, and many of our guests return year after year to do so” said Marc Bromley, general manager, Four Seasons Resort Maui.

Mindfulness City in Kingdom of Bhutan Unveiled as Future Economic Hub

In front of an audience of 30,000 Kingdom of Bhutan residents and officials, His Majesty King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck presented his vision for a new economic hub in Bhutan. Located between India to the south and China to the north, Bhutan is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world. Bhutan came late to global tourism. It opened its borders to international visitors in 1974 and, while tourism definitely increased, residents are enduring “light” rush-hour traffic in Thimphu, its capital city, as the only Asian capital without traffic lights.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
