Every spring, tens of thousands of humpback and gray whales travel from the warm waters of Hawaii and Mexico to spend the summer months feeding in Alaska’s nutrient-rich waters – making Alaska one of the best places on earth to view whales in the summer. Alaska’s oceans are prime habitats for over a dozen species of whales, from one of the smallest: the beluga whale, to the largest animal on the planet: the blue whale.
