Whale Watching Tour – Okinawa
Embark on an unforgettable whale-watching adventure in the warm, crystal-clear waters of Okinawa. Witness the awe-inspiring sight of majestic humpback whales — among the largest mammals on Earth — as they migrate to the Kerama Islands each winter to mate and give birth before continuing their epic journey across the Pacific.

Enhance your experience with our multilingual digital guide, accessible by scanning a QR code on your smartphone (English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Cantonese, Mandarin, Simplified Chinese, Korean). Through this guide, you can learn fascinating facts about whale behavior, migration, and conservation while observing them in their natural habitat. Please note that while our friendly staff can assist you in English and Japanese, detailed explanations about the whales are primarily provided via this digital guide.
Meet our English- and Japanese-speaking crew at the port and board our comfortable boat (departures around 9:00 or 13:45). Enjoy up to three hours at sea, searching for whales, with up to one hour of close observation once they are spotted. Be ready to capture unforgettable moments as they breach, splash, and display their powerful tails just meters away.
This one-hour viewing limit follows official Okinawa whale-watching regulations and is part of a region-wide agreement to protect the whales and ensure a respectful, low-stress observation environment.
