I bought some of these Whale Tracking Bracelets as Christmas gifts this year from Club Ocean. People loved them.
I got a variety of colors, dark blue, light blue and pink.
Originally I thought there was a chip or something in the bracelet that let you track the whale, but there is a card with each bracelet that has the whale's name along with a QR code which takes you to the GPS where the whale is. If you save that info on your phone, you can easily pull it up whenever you want to check him/her out.
My humpback whale, Merlin, a female, is off the coast of Australia. She is about 45 feet long.
Club Ocean also has other animals you can follow and donate to. There are turtles, sharks, polar bears and dolphins along with the whales. And there are coral bracelets, plushies, caps and other accessories you can purchase.
The bracelets took almost a month to arrive, even though I paid for rush shipping, as I wanted to have them in time for Christmas and maybe the Christmas rush is what delayed the delivery, but they did arrive the day before Christmas, so that worked out well.
Check them out here. and support sea animals and get a cool item in the process.
