Plan description

From January to April every year, the world's largest mammal, the humpback whale, makes its rounds around the waters near Amami Oshima. The action of a giant body over 10 meters long jumping and slamming its large fins against the water's surface is sure to get you very excited! ! You can see humpback whales, which are over 10 meters long, from the water! ! *Only holders of a diving C card license or higher, freediver licenses or equivalent qualifications, and advanced divers approved by the captain may participate.
