Autumn : Shiretoko Sightseeing Cruise "Aurora"
If you're lucky enough, you might just spot some adorable little dolphins out at sea! The Shiretoko Peninsula is also a paradise for wildlife. Birds and mammals—such as brown bears, Yezo sika deer, Ezo red foxes, white-tailed eagles, Steller's sea eagles, and Blakiston's fish owls—have built a unique ecosystem here. The surrounding seas are inhabited by seals and dolphins, while colonies of slaty-backed gulls, black-tailed gulls, and Japanese cormorants can be found scattered across the rocky outcroppings. If you are lucky, you might just encounter these animals while taking in the majestic scenery.
〇Route Introduction Secret ground Shiretoko route : This 3-hour and 45-minute cruise takes you to the very tip of the Shiretoko Peninsula—Cape Shiretoko—an area completely inaccessible by land. Because it is a longer journey, you will be treated to exclusive, breathtaking landscapes that can only be witnessed from the sea. Kamuiwakka waterfall route: This 1-hour and 30-minute cruise turns around at the Kamuiwakka Falls, located near the midpoint of the peninsula. Although it is a shorter trip, it safely covers the main highlights of Shiretoko, making it highly recommended for visitors who have a packed schedule of various activities. Rusha Bay route: This 2-hour cruise takes you further past the Kamuiwakka Falls, turning around at Rusha Bay. This route operates exclusively on the small boat Aurora 3. Because there is a very high probability of spotting wild brown bears in this area, it is often referred to as a "brown bear sanctuary."

注意事项
F＆Q Q. Can I livestream on social media? A. To avoid disturbing other guests and protect their privacy, we do not allow livestreaming by individual guests for monetization purposes. Q: Do the cruises operate in the rain? A: We base our operational decisions on wave height, wind speed, and visibility. If rain causes visibility to drop below our safety standards, the cruise will be canceled. In the event of a cancellation, a full refund will be issued online. Please note that using an umbrella while sailing is extremely dangerous, so we kindly ask that you prepare waterproof and warm clothing in advance. Q: Will we be able to see wildlife? A: Because these are wild animals, we cannot guarantee sightings during the cruise. However, if you are lucky, you might spot brown bears or dolphins, and on very rare occasions, even whales may appear. We highly recommend bringing a pair of binoculars to get the best possible view of the animals! Q: What should I wear on board? A: In Autumn : Both our large and small vessels have fully air-conditioned indoor cabins, but the outdoor decks offer no protection from the wind, rain, or cold. The ocean breeze can make it feel chilly out on the water even in the summer, let alone in early spring or autumn. Depending on sea conditions, you may also be splashed by waves. We strongly recommend wearing windproof and waterproof outdoor clothing. In Winter: The ship is air-conditioned, but it can be very cold outdoors, such as on the observation deck or side deck. Depending on the season and weather, temperatures range from -10 to 0°C, and it gets even colder out at sea.We recommend bringing not only thick outerwear, but also earmuffs, scarves, and other warm gear. Q: Is the vessel wheelchair accessible? A: On board Aurora, our staff are happy to assist you when boarding and disembarking. However, please note that movement inside the vessel requires using stairs, which significantly limits wheelchair access onboard.
