General Principles
The Whale Watching Handbook is designed to support managers, regulators, operators and
anyone interested in whale watching. It is a flexible and evolving tool incorporating international
best practice, educational resources and a summary of the latest, relevant scientific information.
The Handbook meets these principles by ensuring robust information, recorded factually and
neutrally.
Wherever possible, images are incorporated onto web pages, to support the text and enhance
presentation.
