With a partnership with the award-winning immersive experience “Sounds of the Ocean,” be immersed in the hauntingly beautiful songs of the humpbacks as they echo through the Pacific. For twenty-five unforgettable minutes, everything else fades away and you’re transported into the whales’ world of sound with onboard hydrophone technology and personal headphones. Along the way, expert naturalists will share the classic PacWhale Eco-Adventures experience you love — breathtaking encounters, small group interpretation, and fascinating whale behavior — but with a special focus on the incredible role sound plays in the lives of these ocean giants. Discover how whales communicate, court, navigate, and even share cultural traditions through song. Learn about the growing challenges of noise pollution in the oceans.
