Because whales deserve a respectful approach

Respectful whale watching from Maui, Hawaii

We are a global environmental organization dedicated to the protection of cetaceans through the listing of eco-responsible and respectful whale watching bases.

Increase your chances of spotting cetaceans with non-aggressive approaches by marine biologists and naturalists.

 Unstressed animals are easier to observe, in a calm and respectful atmosphere. 

By observing whales and dolphins with operators approved by Shelltone Whale Project, you are helping to protect them at no extra cost to you.

The Shelltone team's opinion

The Hawaiian island chain is one of the world's most important habitats for North Pacific humpback whales, and Maui offers some of the best whale-watching in Hawaii. 

Hawaii is the only place in the USA where humpback whales breed, calve and nurse their young, and Hawaii is the best place to observe this phenomenon. 

Scientists estimate that two-thirds of the total North Pacific population (some 4,000 to 5,000 whales) migrate each winter to Hawaiian waters, where boats like ours carefully navigate among them to offer unparalleled whale-watching excursions.

The cetacean enthusiasts selected by the Shelltone team in Maui have chosen the RESPECT.
