Ishinomaki salmon run-spawning tour
 

The location is Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. Salmon born here migrate from the Sea of Okhotsk to the North Pacific Ocean to the Bering Sea to Alaska for 3 to 4 years, then return to their home rivers to spawn and finish their lives.
Please come and see the strong salmon swimming up to create life!

 

Even non-divers can participate without difficulty because it is done in a calm place where you can stand tall (from the knee to the waist).
​Lie down on the river bed and observe it rather than swimming like in the picture. (I don't even wear fins)
The water temperature is about 13 degrees, but it's the surface of the water, so I hardly feel the cold. (Dry suit rental available)

 

Divers can also enjoy diving in Onagawa as an option.

Please see plenty of rare creatures unique to Tohoku! (The sea water temperature is about 16 degrees.)

 

The guide is Miyagi Diving Service High Bridge, which is actively engaged in reconstruction support and cleanup activities in Ishinomaki.

Let's eat plenty of delicious food such as seafood from Tohoku and beef tongue from Sendai on the way home!

Observation areas are shallow waters upstream of rivers, which are spawning grounds.
A large number of salmon that come upstream from the sea gather here to spawn.
Lay one egg at a time. This is the last big job.
As you can see in the photo, we observe the fish by crouching on the surface of the water.
The video is the moment of spawning.

The water temperature for diving in Onagawa is around 16 degrees.
The water temperature is about GW in Izu.
There are plenty of fish unique to this place, such as red bean-sized lumpfish and ultra-rare beaked sculpins.
The photo is a popular scorpion fish. It is a large and dignified charming person with a body length of over 30 cm ♪
