– What Can You Expect –


Explore the surrounding waters of the Amakusa area in Kyushu, teeming with
fish schools and nearly 200 wild "Southern Hando dolphins," a rare sight in
Japan's coastal waters. These dolphins, with a slightly smaller body of about
2-3 meters, are incredibly curious and unafraid of people or boats, offering
year-round sightings of their playful jumps and free swimming in the beautiful
ocean. The chances of encountering dolphins during this itinerary are
exceptionally high! Throughout the 2-hour cruise, knowledgeable staff will
provide information about the Amakusa area and the dolphins in Japanese or
English, enriching your understanding of these magnificent creatures


Marvel at the Amakusa Five Bridges, the Ariake Sea, and the Amakusa Islands
from the yacht's deck during the 2-hour cruise. The yacht also offers indoor
viewing, ensuring you can watch dolphins comfortably even in rainy weather. At
noon, indulge in a delectable sea-view barbecue at "mio camino," featuring
Amakusa delicacies like old car sea shrimp and famous chicken wing skewers.
Additionally, you have the option to engage in various sea sports, such as SUP
and sea kayaking, at your own expense. The cruise also provides access to a
climbing wall, bicycle rental, and an Amakusa souvenir shop, allowing you to
make the most of your free time.
