What are the advantages of northern outbound flights?
Originally, the Kerama Islands are famous for whale watching in Okinawa, but this tour is held in the waters around Iejima in the northern part of the island!
It is still a very rare spot and there are only a few boats, so it is very easy to see the whales.98% encounter rate.and a high encounter rate.
The boat departs from a port about 10 minutes by car from Churaumi Aquarium, a famous sightseeing spot in Okinawa, so it is easy to set up a sightseeing route such as whale watching in the morning and visiting the aquarium in the afternoon.
What kind of performance can we expect?
Because you will be watching whales in their natural habitat, the performances you will see will vary depending on the day you participate!
For example,breachingsaidYou will see a performance in which the body is lifted above the water into the air, the pectoral fins sticking out to the sides, while the body rotates in mid-air and falls back into the water!
It is often done when you want to remove fish and debris from your body.
This is the best part of whale watching and the biggest showcase!
⬇︎ for half-day courses
＜ Whale watching precautions
The biggest concern about whale watching is seasickness. Even people who pride themselves on not getting drunk can get seasick, depending on their physical condition!
Always 30 minutes before departureIt is recommended that you take anti-sickness medication to prevent sickness. Be careful not to board the ship after a night of sleep deprivation, hunger, or overeating, and try to see as much of the distant scenery as possible after boarding.

Q. What is the difference between the two?Can I always see whales?
Whales are wild animals. Although we do not always see them, we have maintained a minimum of 981 TP3T since 2010 and have achieved an encounter rate of 1001 TP3T in 2020, 2021, 2023, and 2024.
Q. What is the difference between the two?What should I wear?Even in Okinawa, you will feel the cold in winter. It is especially cold at sea, so we recommend that you bring warm clothing. We also recommend that women wear jeans and other clothing that is easy to move in rather than skirts.
Please wear shoes with shallow heels, such as sneakers, as high heels are slippery and dangerous. Even if it rains a little, the boat will sail, so it would be convenient to bring a simple rain coat (we also have rental coats available). (We also have rental coats available).
Q. What is the difference between the two?Will I get wet on board?It is a large 40-passenger cruiser with a cabin and second deck, but depending on the wind and waves on the day of the cruise, your clothes may get wet from the spray. Please wear warm and waterproof clothes as much as possible.

In case of cancellation, we will contact you on your cell phone the day before the event or early in the morning on the day of the event.

520代Month of posting: 2024/01We were informed that a father and calf whale had been spotted rather soon after leaving the port, and we moved at a high speed. We were able to see them at close range immediately! They gave us a great service and showed us the breeches over and over again, which we had been told were rare before departure. The captain's light-hearted explanations were a lot of fun, and we had a lot of laughs. The staff was always smiling and friendly, and they were very helpful in giving us information about the timing and where to find the breeches, which is not easy for an amateur diver to understand! We were more satisfied than we could have imagined! Thank you very much!

The overjoyed child was so excited that he and the other participants joined in the fun! It was a great experience to see not only a glimpse of them from the surface of the sea, but also to see them jump. I hope to come back with them when they are older. Thank you for the fun memories!
