Documentaries
PWF-generated documentaries tell the story of work to protect the ocean.
Ocean Guardians (2022)
This 20-minute PWF film created by Selket Kaufman documents the journey of humpback whales as they migrate between Alaska and Hawai‘i and the efforts of the Pacific Whale Foundation to save them from extinction.
A Voice for Whales (2020)
Created by PWF Documentary Filmmaker Selket Kaufman, A Voice for Whales is a visual homage to PWF Founder Greg Kaufman and his efforts to protect whales and other marine mammals through science and advocacy.
Return to K’gari (2023)
Tucked away on the eastern coast of Australia lies a primeval bay where migrating South Pacific humpback whales find refuge. To sustain and grow vital noninvasive whale research, Pacific Whale Foundation (PWF) seizes this opportunity to develop a long-term study examining this population of humpback whales-where they migrate and how they use East Australia’s coastline. Today, PWF Australia’s ongoing efforts focus on the revitalization of a paradise threatened by climate change and unsustainable commercial tourism.
Rising from the Ashes (2024)
This film explores how Pacific Whale Foundation and other community organizations and individuals responded to the immediate needs of those impacted by the devastating Maui fires, and what is being done for long-term community needs and recovery.

Vessel collisions annually kill or injure tens of thousands of marine mammals. We’re working to change that.
We practice and promote policies that minimize the impact of ocean tourism on marine life.
Our Conservation programs include single-use plastic reduction, beach cleanups and legislation advocacy.
We study and provide science-based solutions to incidental catch and entanglement of whales and dolphins.
We analyze impacts of rising sea-surface temperatures to better inform ocean conservation management.
