What you can expect

With over 17 years of experience, our professional captains and crew know Okinawa’s waters inside out and strictly follow official whale-watching regulations to ensure safe, respectful, and eco-friendly observation.

Join us during the peak breeding season for a chance to see humpback whales, including mothers and calves, in their natural habitat. On departures from Naha, an English-speaking guide is guaranteed on board to provide clear and engaging explanations about whale behaviour, migration, and conservation throughout the tour.

After the tour, you will receive a download link to beautiful whale photos taken by our staff (photos may be from another day depending on weather and shooting conditions).

Departures are available from Naha or Chatan.
To depart from Chatan, please select the “Chatan Departure” option when booking.

Meet our friendly multilingual team at the port (English, Japanese, Mandarin) and enjoy a comfortable cruise. Spend up to three hours at sea searching for whales, with up to one hour of close observation once they are found. Watch in awe as they breach, splash, and play right before your eyes.
