A small boat cruises past whirling waves in the straits between the islands of Shikoku and Awaji in western Japan on Saturday April 19, 2008. Known as the "Naruto whirlpool," the big waves like these one are observed on a day of spring tide, when the sun and the moon line up with the earth. (AP Photo/Kyodo News)
