EnglishIs Hakai Magazine Still Publishing? Where to Find Its Archive and New Stories
Updated
Hakai Magazine stopped publishing new articles at the end of 2024. Its website, hakaimagazine.com, now serves as an archive of ten years of award-winning journalism about coastal science and societies, and the team behind the publication is continuing to publish new stories about oceans and coasts at bioGraphic.
What the Site Is Now
The homepage states plainly that the site “archives ten years of award-winning journalism from Hakai Magazine, which ceased publishing at the end of 2024.” In practice, that means:
- No new Hakai Magazine articles are being added to hakaimagazine.com.
- Previously published work remains readable on the site, including feature articles and shorter pieces.
- New ocean and coastal stories from the same team appear at bioGraphic instead.
The site’s focus, as described in its own materials, is science, society, and the environment, with narratives highlighting coastal life and phenomena.
What You Can Still Read in the Archive
The archived content is substantial and easy to browse from the homepage, which rotates featured articles. Examples visible on the site include:
| Article | Topic | Length / Read Time | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish | Farewell piece from the publication | 450 words, about 2 minutes | Dec 27, 2024 |
| The First First Responders | Indigenous rescuers on British Columbia’s coast and formal recognition of their work | 4,600 words, about 23 minutes | Dec 24, 2024 |
| How, Exactly, Could Deep-Sea Mining Benefit All of Humanity? | A working group within the International Seabed Authority | 900 words, about 4 minutes | Dec 20, 2024 |
| The Canoe in the Forest | An unfinished boat in Alaska and Haida and Tlingit canoe-building history | 3,500 words, about 17 minutes | Dec 19, 2024 |
| What’s Next for Deep-Sea Mining? | The unfinished Mining Code | 850 words, about 4 minutes | Dec 18, 2024 |
| The Personal Toll of Canada’s Broken Fishing Promises | Indigenous fishermen on the Atlantic Coast and treaty disputes | — | — |
The site also notes that feature articles are available in a “Hakai Magazine Audio Edition,” so you can listen rather than read.
How to Use the Archive
- Start at hakaimagazine.com. The rotating featured header surfaces a handful of articles at a time.
- Use the featured article list on the homepage to jump to recent highlights.
- Check the byline date and read time shown with each piece (for example, “Dec 24, 2024 | 4,600 words, about 23 minutes”) to judge whether an article matches the depth you want.
- Expect the archive to be static. Anything you find was published on or before late December 2024.
Where to Find New Stories
For current coverage of oceans and coasts from the same editorial team, go to bioGraphic. The Hakai Magazine site directs readers there for new work, so it is the place to look if you want material published after the magazine ceased operations.
Common Points to Keep in Mind
- A missing recent date is expected, not a broken site. The newest items are from December 2024.
- The archive is for reading, not subscribing for updates. Since publishing has ended, there are no new issues to await on this domain.
- Long-form features are the strength of the archive. Several pieces run 3,500–4,600 words, so set aside time or use the audio edition.
- Topic range is coastal and marine. Deep-sea mining, fisheries policy, Indigenous rescue and canoe-building traditions, and similar subjects dominate the featured list.
In short: read the ten-year archive at hakaimagazine.com, and follow the team’s new ocean and coastal journalism at bioGraphic.
