The Kanto region's most well-known surf spots are the Kujukuri area in Chiba, which has been chosen as the venue for the world-famous sporting event surfing, and Kanagawa/Shonan, whose scenery is often depicted in songs, dramas, and movies.

"Okinawa Tropical Fishing" is a great experience even for beginners! Introducing recommended fishing boat plans that depart from near the Churaumi Aquarium!

I think the biggest attraction of fishing in Okinawa is the fact that you can "set out on a boat on the beautiful sea and play under the blue sky." Even though I'm a huge advocate of fishing in Okinawa, I'm not interested in fishing at all in my everyday life, and I've never even been there! lol But even so, I'm interested in it as an outdoor leisure activity in Okinawa, and I think it sounds fun. Maybe the tropical paradise of Okinawa has that kind of magic.

Parasailing is a classic Okinawan outdoor leisure activity, and it's a walk in the air above the sea! Here's our recommended experience tour plan!

2019/07/01

Parasailing is a standard activity in tropical countries, but surprisingly, many people don't know what it is. It's a simple and straightforward activity where you fly in the sky like a kite towed by a boat, but the name doesn't match it. Paragliding can be easily confused with sky activities like hang gliding. That's true.

The most popular activity in Miyakojima, Okinawa! Introducing our recommended plan for "SUP (Stand Up Paddle Board)"!

2019/06/27

Hello everyone who is watching Activity Japan. I'm Shishimaru. After watching the animated movie "Children of the Sea", I really wanted to go to the sea. The depiction of the sea is very beautiful, and the depiction of whales, whale sharks, sea turtles, and other sea creatures is also very good, so I started reading the original manga. In it, there was a line that said, "Snorkeling may seem like a casual pastime, but in fact there are many fatal accidents." "On the other hand, if you get the hang of it, it's very useful. It will expand your world." I really empathized with this. My world really expanded after I started snorkeling. The sea is so vast. SUP has expanded my world in the same way. I will introduce the appeal of SUP, which you can start very easily if you rent the necessary equipment.
