Supporting Responsible Whale-Watching Projects
Using scientific studies, international and national conferences, operator-training workshops, public education, legislative advocacy, and the creation of whale watching regulations, IFAW continues to promote the growth and development of responsible whale watching around the world.
By combining our expertise with local knowledge, we nurture a true appreciation of these awe-inspiring animals and their habitats and encourage responsible wildlife viewing practices, which, in turn, helps local economies.
From the frigid northern waters of Iceland and Japan to the tropical isles of the South Pacific and Caribbean, IFAW is helping whale watching take off as a major force in global eco-tourism.
