Ocean Career Quest is an immersive 5-day program that introduces Maui middle school students to careers in marine science and ocean conservation. The program will take place on board a floating classroom (one of PacWhale Eco-Adventures’ vessels) on which participants will have the opportunity to learn some marine science basics through firsthand experiences, meet experts and learn about their career paths, acquire some new skills, and have fun along the way!
