Hawaiian Islands 
Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary

"Humpback whales (kohola) can be seen in Hawaiian waters from December to May. Mothers and calves can often be seen resting near shore. The acrobatic displays of humpbacks are visible from miles away.

Most of the North Pacific humpback whale population migrates nearly 3,000 miles to Hawaiian waters each winter to mate, calve, and nurse. During the spring and summer they return to feed in cool, nutrient-rich waters near Alaska and other northern areas."
