Plan description

Let's go to the sea of Ogasawara in winter to observe the dynamic whale!

The sea where life is born

Sperm whales can be observed all year round in the Ogasawara Sea, and humpback whales also appear from late December to May. Whales spend valuable time giving birth and raising children in the sea of Ogasawara. On this tour, we will watch humpback whales, which are relatively easy to observe in the near sea and have dynamic movements. (Don't go to the waters where sperm whales are) Let's slowly approach and watch so as not to surprise them!

You can feel the dynamic power up close

The world's largest mammal, the whale. You can't take your eyes off their powerful actions such as bleaching that lifts that huge body and jumps out of the water, and the appearance of waving long and beautiful chest fins. You can also meet newborn whales around February!
