Upcoming Events
Whale Trust is committed to the goal of promoting and fostering Maui as a unique living laboratory for whale research and marine education. This goal is attainable through the development and participation of community outreach programs not only here in Maui and the mainland United States, but around the globe.
We update this section of our website regularly, so please check back to see if one of us will be speaking somewhere in your area soon.
