Looking east - According to this display, you may be fortunate enough to see humpback whales from January through March. These magnificent creatures migrate 3,500 miles from Alaska to Hawaiian waters, which provide important breeding, calving, and nursing grounds.
In 1997 Hawaii Governor Benjamin Cayetano and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration designated portions of the Hawaiian waters as the Hawaiian Island Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary.
