Kalama Park is a spacious and diverse park complex suitable for organized sporting events, outdoor concerts, fairs, festivals and gatherings of all kinds.
In addition to beach access, the 36-acre park is home to a variety of athletic fields, tennis and basketball courts, inline skating rink, performance gazebo, picnic pavilions, scenic landscaping and highly-variegated natural terrain.
Recent renovations to the park have added a skateboard park, multipurpose field, a playground and extended the areas for recreation and picnicking.
This is a great spot to sit and watch for the whales!
Scientists estimate that approximately 4,000 to 5,000 humpback whales--two-thirds of the North Pacific stock--migrate to Hawai`i each winter. From their feeding grounds in Alaska, they cross 3,000 miles of ocean to reach their winter destination, which offers the promise of relaxation, adventure and "romance."
The primary activities that humpback whales engage in during their stay in Hawai`i include mating, birthing and nursing.
Patience will often reward whale watchers with a glimpse of a tail or a full breach. ( competing with others for female attention and perfecting their singing techniques.
Sighting humpback whales can be an awe-inspiring experience whether from the water or the shore.
Their impressive acrobatic displays are visible from miles away.
Mothers can be seen teaching their calves to breach, and males can be seen competing with one another in fierce head-to-head battles.
The underwater vocal stylings of male humpback whales can even be heard by divers, snorkelers and boaters..
It is no wonder, then, that the thrill of such encounters has fostered a strong love of humpbacks in the islands.
