The humpback whale season in Rarotonga and the Cook Islands starts in July and goes until October. Their migration patterns vary year on year depending on ocean temperatures, but you generally see them during this period. Most of the whale sightings in Rarotonga are usually in September. 

Humpbacks are known for singing loud, complex “songs” – lasting up to 30 minutes long! The sounds they make are the most varied in the animal kingdom, ranging from high-pitched squeals and whistles to low, rumbling gurgles. Only males “sing” and experts think they do it to attract females or to let other males know they’re in the area.
