Whale Watching Near Honolulu
Visitors to Honolulu are in for a treat when they take part in whale-watching excursions. From mid-December through April, humpback whales migrate from Alaska and the Arctic Ocean to Hawaii’s warm waters where they mate and give birth to their calves. During this time of year, it is possible to witness these wonderful creatures breaching the ocean surface and playing with each other near Honolulu’s coast. Whale-watching tours offer visitors an up-close look at these gentle giants as well as stunning views of Oahu’s coastline. Whether you’re looking for a romantic outing or an educational experience, whale watching near Honolulu will provide lasting memories that can be cherished for years to come!
Humpback Whale Migration
The Alaskan humpback whale is an iconic species of the North Pacific Ocean. Each year, these majestic mammals undertake a remarkable journey from their feeding grounds in Alaska to their breeding and calving grounds off the coast of the Hawaiian islands. Along the way, they travel up to 10,000 miles round trip – one of the longest migrations for any mammal on Earth! During this incredible journey, these whales must brave treacherous waters and face numerous threats both natural and man-made. As a result, conservation efforts are being made to ensure that future generations will be able to witness this awe-inspiring spectacle.
