★Let's share the excitement of this hot winter with everyone★ In winter, humpback whales come to Okinawa's main island to raise their young! Adults can reach lengths of up to 13 meters, making them some of the largest creatures on Earth! The excitement of seeing them underwater is indescribable. We will be exploring how to observe them with as little stress as possible, trying to avoid disturbing them as much as possible! Because we are dealing with nature and wild animals, depending on individual differences, you may have to wait on board for a long time, and there may be restrictions on the number of times you can enter the water. However, the excitement and explosive power of seeing them underwater is so great that it makes all of that hardship worthwhile!
Since this is a snorkeling tour, you can still fly home after participating! It's also possible to combine it with diving, so even those who are short on time can enjoy a tour that lasts as little as two days and one night. ♪ [Example 1] Diving and whale swimming combined: First day: Morning → Arrive at Naha Airport, Afternoon → Dive the next day, participate in whale swimming, fly in the evening → Return home. [Example 2] Whale swimming only: First day: Work during the day, Night → Arrive in Okinawa the next day, participate in whale swimming, fly in the evening → Return home. *We recommend catching a flight as late as possible after participating in whale swimming. The end time may be delayed depending on tour conditions.
The tour departs from two locations, Naha and Ginowan, making it easy to participate from various areas, including not only Naha City but also Chatan Town, Yomitan Village, Onna Village, Nago City, and more. *Please note that traffic congestion is expected during rush hour on weekdays, so please allow yourself plenty of time.
The boat is shared, but it is made up of only friendly shops, so once on board, we work as one team! The sense of unity on board is unique to "Chubu Whale Swim"! Let's share the excitement with everyone ♪
