The Sanctuary relies on the help of volunteers and offers a variety of opportunities around the state.  The largest concentration of volunteers assist with the Sanctuary Education Center located in Kihei, Maui. 

During the months of January, February, and March (peak whale season) the Sanctuary Ocean Count project offers the community a chance to monitor whales from the shores of Hawaii, Kauai, and Oahu.

In addition, the Sanctuary Advisory Council (statewide) allows the community to get involved in the management of the Sanctuary.
