Information Introduction The Jangsaengpo Whale Cultural District located in Nam-gu, Ulsan-si, is the nation's only facility that has a whale watching infrastructure in place
The whale cultural district is famous for the whale-themed tour program featuring a whale watching cruise, a whale museum and the whale ecology familiarization tour
The whale watching cruise was first launched in July 2009
In April 2013, the ship was upgraded to a 550-ton cruise liner with 399 crew members, therefore offering an even more enjoyable whale watching tour
During the day, the cruise ship is mainly used for whale observation
After a minke whale sighting in May 2013, around 3000-4000 common dolphins were observed shortly after
At night, one can experience a glamorous night view of Ulsan Industrial Complex while enjoying diverse performances and buffet dining aboard the ship
The ship also accommodates various events and programs such as school trips, company workshops, seminars, parties, weddings, beer parties and anniversary events
A trip aboard the whale watching cruise with friends, family, or loved ones will surely make for one memorable experience
