The Shelltone team's opinion
The Hawaiian island chain is one of the world's most important habitats for North Pacific humpback whales, and Kona 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 (around 4,000 to 5,000 whales) migrate to Hawaiian waters each winter.
The cetacean enthusiasts selected by the Shelltone team in Kona have chosen the RESPECT.
