Kochi Whale Watching Kids

The offshore waters of Kuroshio Town, Kochi Prefecture are known as a habitat for Bryde's whales, and you can enjoy whale watching from April through October. Aboard a watching boat modified from a fishing vessel, the experience of encountering groups of whales and dolphins in the offshore Pacific becomes a lifetime memory for children. Expert captains provide easy-to-understand explanations of marine animal ecology, making it educational as well. Encounter rates are high—dolphins 90% or more, whales approximately 50%.
