Summer in Hokkaido is something that everyone wants to visit at least once. We will guide you through "Okhotsk", which is rich in nature even in Hokkaido, for a leisurely day. The theme of the Shiretoko area is "to fully enjoy nature". In the morning, a guided walk around the Shiretoko Goko Lakes takes you through the representative fields of Shiretoko. We will pick you up at a restaurant in Utoro for lunch. The remaining half day is trekking in the primeval forest. We will take you to a place with a superb view of cliffs and waterfalls by walking along the animal trail. You can immerse yourself in the charm of the world natural heritage Shiretoko through encounters with wild animals and dynamic scenery. *If the Shiretoko Five Lakes are closed due to brown bear appearances, snowfall, etc., there may be cases where the morning and afternoon tours are replaced, another course is offered, and the tour ends in half a day (in that case, a refund will be given). Please forgive me in advance. ◆This facility is registered as a nationwide travel support store that handles regional coupons. "Regional Coupons" can only be used for local payments.

An appreciation tour surrounded by the best starry sky in Japan and the light of fireflies around 360 degrees! A world of beautiful light created by Yaeyama Himebotaru and a sky full of stars in the night sky! Let's go see the limited-time natural illumination SHOW! The main thing you can observe is the Yaeyama hime firefly. The flickering light is a different feature from the fireflies seen in Honshu. Fireflies glow because of their courtship activity. If you take off all at once as if by arrangement, you will be surrounded by fireflies and be enveloped in the light of the fireflies. The viewing point is in the mountains, a 20-minute drive from the city. This is a great spot for serious camera enthusiasts and first-time firefly viewers alike. After watching the fireflies, if the weather is nice, take a short detour before heading home. Let's go see the sky full of stars in Yaeyama, one of Japan's leading starry sky observation spots! You can also see the Milky Way and the Southern Cross~^^-Measures against infectious diseases such as coronavirus-FLOWFISH will take several measures so that guests can enjoy the tour with peace of mind.

One dive is not enough! A 2-dive diving experience for those who want to dive a lot. It is a course to dive into the sea twice with a break by changing the point or course. Most people are full of tension when diving for the first time! Most people end up not being able to see the fish and the surrounding underwater landscape with plenty of time. I'm sure that in the second dive after getting used to it, you will be able to get to know what you did not notice in the first dive, and you will be deeply moved. * I really want to see sea turtles!

"Private whale watching departing from Fisherina in Chatan! A half-day charter plan to search for humpback whales that visit in winter." Every winter, humpback whales return to Okinawa to breed, which is the most exciting season in Okinawa's ocean! Let's go looking for whales while looking at the beautiful Okinawa coast on the fully chartered comfortable boat "Haisai". In summer, they travel long distances to the Bering Sea, which is their feeding ground, and in winter, they travel long distances to the coastal waters of Okinawa to raise their young and breed. Humpback whales are one of the largest mammals in the world, with a total length of 10 to 15 meters and a weight of 30 tons. You will be fascinated by the performances of the whales, such as blowing (spouting) when their huge bodies appear on the surface of the sea and blow up a lot of spray, diving with their tails raised high, and jumping called breaching. Sometimes you can see their charming gestures of flapping their fins and tails in the air and splashing on the water surface. If you're lucky, you may have the chance to see a baby whale being brought along by its mother, or the dynamic spectacle of a male whale repeatedly breaching for courtship, known as a "heat run."
