Description:
|
LAHAINA. Home to two museums, this center looks at the life of the whale and then at the life of those who made a career of hunting it. The first museum contains displays relating to a whale's life cycle and evolution, along with skeletons of the large mammals. Humpback whales, which migrate locally, are given special attention. The second museum looks at Hawaii's whaling past, including the alternately grueling and boring moments of whale hunting. Diaries, movies, ship's models, and artifacts demonstrate the lives of these sailors and dispel part of the romance of a life at sea. The museum also has a good selection of scrimshaw and other memorabilia. |
