I stopped to see the whales and heard their songs. The only regret is that I could only see the side of the whales, and they were far away. Although I took photos and videos, I never saw the moment when the whale jumped out of the water. A little disappointed, the staff also gave the passengers photos of the whales taken with their telephoto lens that day, which was very thoughtful. The boat was very bumpy, and for safety, the staff did not allow passengers to stand, walk around, or change seats at will. Otherwise, I should have been able to capture the whales faster, haha!

Smooth and easy tour. The vendor contacted me via whatsapp the day before to confirm the tour details. On the day itself, just find the tour guide in the carpark and he will guide you. We managed to spot 2 whales and they were close to the boat! The whole tour took almost 3 hours. Would recommend.

I was lucky enough to see humpback whales several times on the trip, and it was well worth seeing. The arrangements on the boat were also very good. I recommend taking seasickness medicine beforehand.

This was my family's first time visiting Okinawa, and we decided to book with News Company. Although the explanation was in Japanese, they provided us with a Chinese instruction manual. The pick-up and drop-off were very convenient, and our captain was really great, ensuring we could all see the whales head-on and up close. Since we had two elderly family members over 80 years old, we didn't go up to the ship's bow to watch. Even though we were sitting in our seats, the staff thoughtfully opened the plastic door for us, allowing us to clearly see the sea and the whales. The only downside was the long journey to get there, which really made you feel nauseous, but the return trip was quick. I recommend not eating too much before going, and also avoiding dairy products, otherwise you'll easily get dizzy and nauseous. Eating something sour might be more comfortable than taking motion sickness medicine. Plums (to keep on hand) are also a good choice.

After a short boat ride, we saw whales not far from the shore, and there were several showy dives, a great experience.

The weather was great, and we were very lucky to encounter five whales. Everyone was excited to take pictures, and the overall service was excellent and very satisfying. If you come to Okinawa during whale season, I highly recommend joining this tour. It will be a very unforgettable experience.
