What travelers say:

Northern Hedge has a fish called the fin. The fin is so big that it is thousands of miles away. In Japan, every December to January, a magical animal travels south from the northern Alaska waters to Okinawa offshore to breed fin whales. The best place to see them is the Kyoliangjian Islands in Okinawa. In the hot summer, people dive in Okinawa and listen to the waves in late autumn. In the winter months, visitors to Okinawa can see flocks of humpback whales dancing by the sea and close contact with the king of the sea. Here, the Qingliangjian islands, 40 kilometers west of Naha Island, are formed by more than 20 islands, including manned and uninhabited islands. The island is also a famous diving place in the world. The sea near Qingliangjian Island is very transparent and clear. This island group not only has remarkable beauty under God's magic work, but also has been protected by society and people. In November 2005, about 120 hectares of sea area on the west side of the island of Dukajima and about 233 hectares of sea area between Interstellar Island and Ajia Island containing uninhabited islands were listed on the Wetlands Convention's list of wetlands of international importance under the name "Sea of the Qingliangjian Islands". The islands of Qingliang are surrounded by seawater, and the ecological environment is quite excellent. It is suitable for diving seasons to provide people with a wonderful environment, and in the cold winter, it also provides a place for whales to gather and flourish. With boats that break through the water, visitors can see the majestic posture of the giant animal by the mast. You can not only see the huge humpback whales leaping out of the water, bringing up a few meters of water, but also beating the water with their tails, slapping the calm sea with waves; Even male whales can be heard courting female whales under the vast sea surface, penetrating a whole area of sea. Unlike the light goldfish seen in the fish pond, the freedom of the whale can only be seen in the endless sea, spectacular and extraordinary scene, rare. People love the slim little life, and they are also in awe of such a huge inspiration. In this winter, take Le Tao Airlines from Hong Kong to Okinawa, follow the footsteps of winter, come to the seas of Qingliangjian Island, feel the dancing and breathing of whales, feel the vastness and shock of the sea.
