Ocean Safety
The beauty of Hawaii’s ocean waters plays a large role in the appeal of this amazing island chain.
Oftentimes the water looks calm and safe, but beneath the spectacular scenery, the ocean can also be extremely unpredictable and dangerous.
Each island is uniquely beautiful in its own right, but also comes with its own unique safety measures. Here at Home Watch Hawaii, we want to help you get prepared.
No matter what island you are visiting, here are a few basics to keep you and your loved ones safe while still being able to enjoy the incredible beaches of Hawaii.
Humpback Whales
Humpback whales are common visitors to the Hawaiian Islands each year. The first whales are typically spotted in November with the last whales usually seen in late April into early May (February being the “best” time to spot them).
Humpback Whales leave the icy waters of Alaska during the fall season for warmer waters to mate, give birth, and nurture their calves. Not only does Hawaii offer warmer waters, but a variety of ocean depths and a lack of natural predators as well.
