Observação de golfinhos em Kumamoto

Our boat's captain, with blond strands in his hair, is very good at his job. He tried to explain to me some facts about the dolphins with his translator. He is always on the lookout for a better positioning of our boat that we are almost always in the middle of the dolphins. Other boats were a bit at the edge.

Check-in and ticket collection were clear and simple. The boat was clean, and there was ample time to watch the dolphins, nearly an hour.

Excellent value for money! Perhaps because the small boat is more agile, coupled with the captain's keen sense, we found a pod of dolphins within 20 minutes of setting sail. Since the boat is smaller and closer to the water, we could observe the dolphins up close. Although I didn't see hundreds of dolphins, seeing 7-8 dolphins swimming and jumping right before my eyes was already breathtaking. Please note that the ticket collection point and the boarding point are a few minutes' drive apart. The auntie who issued the tickets was very friendly and communicated using a translation device. My wife felt a bit seasick but still happily watched the dolphins for an hour. However, she mentioned it would be safer if the boat operator could prepare sick bags on board. This is a 100% recommended activity.

It was a very satisfying activity, except for the long distance. It took 2 hours and 20 minutes to drive from our accommodation to the location, which was very tiring. We took a boat for 20 minutes and saw dolphins, and the moment we saw the pod of dolphins, the fatigue from driving disappeared. There was another dolphin-watching activity that was twice as expensive as this one, and although their boat looked bigger and better, the travel time by boat was longer. Our smaller boat meant fewer passengers, which made the dolphin viewing experience even better.

We finally saw the dolphins that the kids wanted to see most, and they were so happy! Just a heads-up that the ticket collection point and the boarding point are different. There will be detailed instructions when you pick up your tickets. I highly recommend this itinerary.

The meeting point was clear, and we saw many dolphins. It was an amazing experience, and the price was reasonable. The waves were quite strong, but we felt safe wearing life jackets.

Incredible, we didn't expect to see so many dolphins at once. I highly recommend this experience.

It wasn't a big boat, but rather a fishing boat? A small motorboat? I took one of those... The price was affordable, and it was great that we could get closer to the dolphins. An hour was enough for the tour!

Experience: Very good, highly recommended. This place offers great value for money and the boat is excellent.

It was a truly fantastic experience. All the staff were kind and helped us safely. I highly recommend it.
