Swim with Giant Tuna Experience

Dive with Giant Tuna in Minami-Ise


Enter the ocean and swim alongside giant tuna.
Feel their speed and power just meters away.
This is not an aquarium—this is a real experience in the open sea. 

Join a local fisherman and diving instructor as you board a fishing boat and head out to offshore tuna farming pens.
Enter the water and experience swimming up close with giant tuna in their natural marine environment.


Minami-Ise is a coastal region where mountains and ocean coexist, shaping a way of life deeply connected to nature.
Tuna farming here is part of a long-standing tradition, carefully maintained in balance with the environment.
This experience offers a rare opportunity to witness that lifestyle and the scale of nature firsthand.
