About
Join us for an extraordinary adventure in the stunning waters of Amami Oshima, where you can encounter the magnificent humpback whales, the second-largest creatures on Earth. Witnessing these majestic and mysterious wild whales is a rare and precious experience. Male humpback whales sing as part of their courtship rituals, and with a bit of luck, you might be able to hear their beautiful songs.
​
Amami Oshima also offers a rich cultural experience. Explore the island’s traditional folk songs, crafts, and the diverse plant and animal life that thrive here. The unique culture, nurtured alongside nature, adds another layer of wonder to your journey.
​
Our tours take place from January to March, during Japan’s winter. Despite the cold, the chance to meet these incredible wild whales in their natural habitat makes this tour an unforgettable adventure.
