An educational Hawaiian Monk Seal tour by Kittie Travel

Kittie Travel is a member of Hawaii Marine Animal Stewards and is supporting NOAA/HMAR to protect Hawaiian Monk Seal who is one of the most endangered animal species in the world -- only about 1,400 seals are left and endemic to the Hawaiian Islands, meaning it is native and exists nowhere else on Earth.

Their Hawaiian names are "iliokai" (dog of the sea), "ilioholoikauaua" (dog running in the rough seas) and "mea hulu" (furry one.)  They love to play in the water and eat on a diverse range of fish, octopuses, and squid which live on or near the ocean floor and hide in the sand or under rocks.

I met Rocky and Kaimana (mom & baby) of Hawaiian Monk Seals at Waikiki Beach, the busiest beach in the summer of 2017.  Rocky gave to birth Kaimana on Waikiki Beach in June 2017.  They became popular Hawaiian Monk Seals in the world.  I felt in love with them and wanted support and protect all seals in Hawaii so that seals will grow its population and live healthy and happy in Hawaii.

We offer an educational Hawaiian Monk Seal tour on Oahu, Hawaii.  You are able to learn about seals who they are, how they swim in the water and move on the beach, etc. and How to protect them on the beach by the staff of Waikiki Aquarium and meet some of the seals at the beaches.
