There’s lots of exciting turtle activity happening and Hawaii Wildlife Fundneeds your help! Several volunteer opportunities are available on Maui which include turtle nest watching.
“Hawaii Wildlife Fund leads constant vigils of each hawksbill nest right before and during the hatching period. Hatchlings often need a little assistance getting to the ocean as they can get trapped in sandy footprints or debris, become disoriented by coastal lighting or get entangled in vegetation. Hawaii Wildlife Fund camps by each turtle nest to wait for the hatchlings to emerge. Our presence keeps cats, dogs, birds, mongooses, and crabs from preying upon these hatchlings. When the tiny turtles crawl up out of the sand, nest watchers clear the way to make sure the hatchlings make it to the ocean safely.”
We have received many comments and questions regarding the global coral bleaching epidemic seen in the waters around Hawaii and other parts of the world. This is caused by water temperatures which increased this past summer. Thankfully, water temperatures are dropping and we are hoping for recovery of the stressed corals.
The Humpback Whales have arrived!! The first sighting was October 24th between Molokini and Kaho’olawe. We anticipate starting whale watch tours on Sunday, December 20th. From that day through to the end of whale season Kai Kanani whale watch tours will run daily from 1:15 – 3:15 with Hawaii Wildlife Fund certified naturalists on board to talk about the whales and answer questions. The tour will include light snacks and drinks and we will have our hydrophone on board for the opportunity to listen to the whales live. And back by popular demand – our Whale Watch Season Pass!
Snorkel Molokini and enjoy up to 200 ft. of visibility on our classic Maui adventure. An open bar, Maui Brewing beers and full-service deli lunch in three courses complete the perfect day!
