Departing from Motobu Town in northern Okinawa ☆ Closest to the popular Junglia Okinawa! (20 minutes) ☆ 10 minutes from Churaumi Aquarium! Small group tours. Two sailings daily from Toguchi Port in Motobu Town. Experienced whale-loving staff will guide you to whales in the northern part of the country! Free shuttle service is available from select hotels in Motobu Town and Nago City! (However, this applies to those without transportation such as rental cars.) The average encounter rate is an astonishing 98%! If you don't see any cetaceans (whales or dolphins), you will receive a one-year retry pass (however, if you are alone and see a blowfish or other creatures, or if you are unable to see any due to personal reasons, a retry pass will not be issued). ★Dogs are welcome on board.
Humpback whales will return to Okinawa from December to April. The area around Motobu Peninsula is a super secret whale watching area. Humpback whales are whales that migrate thousands of kilometers north and south of the earth, and can reach up to 15 meters. The curious humpback whale may even approach the boat on its own! Once you see it, you will never forget it! Let's experience the excitement together!
Two trips a day depart from Toguchi Port in Motobu Town. It's perfect for after-trip tours of Junglia Okinawa, Churaumi Aquarium, Nakijin Castle, Nago Pine Tree Garden, and Kouri Island, or as a graduation trip or for families! The only one in the prefecture! Dogs are allowed on board!
Motobu Town and some designated hotels in Nago will be picked up free of charge. Please contact us when making a reservation.
