PACIFIC WHALE FOUNDATION

Whale Watching Tours & Advocacy

Pacific Whale Foundation’s mission is to protect our oceans through science and advocacy. We accomplish this through our ongoing marine research, education and conservation programs. Through our ocean eco-adventure cruises, we have educated nearly 3.5 million people about the marine environment, while raising needed funds to support vital whale and dolphin research studies, educational programs for children and adults, as well as important conservation programs, including our fight to stop commercial whaling.
