In honor of Rob Stewart’s commitment and work, the festival will present annually The Rob Stewart Award for Best Film – Ocean Conservation. Special attention will be given to films and individuals that strive to change people’s perception and understanding of sharks, and also films that look at climate change issues. In addition, films featuring general ocean conservation work will be considered.
The Waimea Ocean Film Festival brings a rich and dynamic program to remarkable venues on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi every January.
Over 60 films, coupled with filmmaker Q&As, presentations and panel discussions highlight ocean experience, ocean environment, island culture, inspirational stories and epic adventure, set amidst the beauty of the Kohala Coast. Venues include some of the most stunning and exclusive resorts in the world – the Four Seasons Resort Hualālai, the Fairmont Orchid, Hawaiʻi, Mauna Kea Resort – along with historic theatres in the town of Waimea.
The 2018 Festival Program is available for download.
