February is Humpback Whale Month – Kauai, Hawaii

“The goal of Humpback Whale Awareness Month is to enhance public awareness of Hawai‘i’s official state marine mammal and increase public involvement in ocean stewardship. ”

“Hawai‘i is a special place for humpback whales,” said Naomi McIntosh, Sanctuary Superintendent. “Because Hawai‘i is the only state in the United States where humpbacks mate, calve and nurse, it is essential that they are protected here. Humpback Whale Awareness Month provides opportunities for the public to find out more about the sanctuary and humpback whales, and learn how anyone in Hawai‘i can play a role in protecting humpback whales and Hawai‘i’s other ocean resources.”

Na Pali Riders Raft Tours is located in Kauai. The Humpback whales are here in record numbers this season. We invite you to join a whale watching tour if you are going to be visiting between December – May. Please visit our website at http://www.napaliriders.com
