    Been there 3 times, in 2004 with my mother, 2013 with my godson and 2017 alone. Absolutely awesome, and some of the best udon, seafood and daigaku imo I've ever had (at the little shop in front of the bus stop). Thank you Kuga San for reviving those great memories.

    “I feel the energy of the Earth.” ❤️ Beautifully poetic, Kuga-san! And I’m sure you *did* 😁!
    I wasn’t surprised that the boat turned out to be very fast in open water 🙂. I knew it had to have a lot of power just to be able to “keep station” in the whirlpools, and when it first approached the dock I could see that the pilot was handling it like it was a ski-boat. Impressive!
    Another great entry in your series of videos showing the seas around Japan! So many wonderful seashores, and things like these whirlpools - even that forbidding view from the northern tip of Hokkaido in Winter has a certain austere beauty to it 🙂! 🌊
    But … I can’t wait until Winter returns 😁! Japan in heavy snow is absolutely magical 🌨!

    Very Impressive, we have something similar here in the U.K under the Menai Bridge in North Wales, though not as powerful as shown in your video. In addition, we have a phenomenon called the Severn Bore which is best described as a mini tsunami that at certain times during the year runs down the River Severn and people surf on top of it.

      @@SMGJohn not a big threat to boats or ships, those rocks are lot more dangerous. However if you were to swim in those waters be different matter. Only suction vortexes are truly dangerous, those are very rare.
