The best season is said to be sea bathing, the spring Marine Activity can enjoy and summer, but autumn and winter are a happy hunting ground season. For the average temperature to become very easy to have time with 17-27 ℃ with the off season, there is also a merit for which reservations of a hotel and an airplane is easy to make.

I'm impressed with winter charming sights and whale watching of Okinawa, Experience.

A dynamic performance of a whale such as a jump and a spout can't take its eyes off.
A dynamic performance of a whale such as a jump and a spout can't take its eyes off.

I take an exclusive large cruiser "Lee further number" from the threefold castle (MIEGUSU KU) harbor in Naha-shi, to west, approximately 1 hour. Keramashotou where even the world is a famous diving site is being seen. The sea around the island is called "mole cricket Mab Lou" and is famous as the spot by which a humpback whale is thought to meet winter imminently.
I sit down on a chair and move until a whale is found but if it's found, I'll go up to a right or wrong bow and the 2nd floor. The whale seen imminently is force perfection. It's possible to see the whole form of the whale from the 2nd floor.

From Naha Airport, Direction, often, at the Boarding/Departure Area

A possibility that you can meet a parent and child of a whale is also high.

There is one at Boarding/Departure Area in Lee further number in the location of the approximately 8 minutes by car from Naha Airport. It's also near in Naha-shi, so you can also participate casually in the departure date and the arrival date. It's also a wonderful point to tend to include in a sightseeing plan for a tourist.
The length of the ship finds a whale in 10 minutes at the least by the sense and experience by an expert who has an experience for more than 10 years. The encounter rate, 97% (from December, 2022, 2023 year 4 monthly performance). Recommendation Activity when visiting Okinawa in winter.
