Special Night with Orca: A Unique After-Hours Show at Kamogawa Sea World

Kamogawa Sea World, a centerpiece of Granvista Hotels & Resorts in Chiba Prefecture, is thrilled to announce a special event titled 'Special Night with Orca'. This extraordinary performance is scheduled for select weekends in the first half of 2026, specifically in April, June, and September. This five-weekend event will take place after regular closing hours, allowing visitors to experience orca performances in a unique twilight setting.

The performances are beautifully timed to coincide with the sunset, which varies throughout the months. For instance, in April, the sunset is around 6:05 PM, while in June, it's approximately 6:55 PM. This ensures a dynamic backdrop, enhancing the thrilling leaps and energetic displays of the orcas against various evening sky colors.

In addition to the mesmerizing show, guests can indulge in a special stay package offered by the Kamogawa Sea World Hotel, where entry tickets for the performance are bundled with overnight accommodations. Not only does this allow easy access to witness the evening orca activities, but it also includes complimentary admission to the aquarium during the entire duration of the stay. This unique offering lets visitors compare daytime performances with the spectacular night show while enjoying the comforts of the hotel.
