Mr. Watson was taken into custody by the Danish police in Nuuk, Greenland immediately after docking his boat, the John Paul DeJoria.
Known for leading campaigns against whale hunting and shark finning, Mr. Watson had planned to intercept a Japanese factory ship in the North Pacific Ocean.
Mr. Watson had been the subject of a previous red notice by Japan linked to his anti-whaling activities in the South Ocean, though the warrant had disappeared months before his recent arrest.
