Experience the charm of sport climbing at a popular bouldering gym!

2019/12/26

First, let's briefly review the basics of the sport known as "bouldering." Bouldering is a sport in which the goal is to climb an artificial wall that mimics the surface of natural rock using only minimal equipment, such as bouldering shoes and chalk to prevent slipping. I'm sure many of you have seen the sight of people climbing up a sloping wall in a gym, holding on to colorful protruding stones called holds.

Board the boat from Kanazawa-Hakkei! Introducing a sea fishing experience tour recommended for beginners!

2019/12/24

Apparently you can catch a variety of fish in Tokyo Bay. From horse mackerel and sillago to rockfish, hairtail, red sea bream, filefish, and juvenile yellowtail called inada. Horse mackerel and sillago are small, so even beginners can easily catch them, and best of all, they're delicious! I once tried inada fishing on a fishing boat, and even the young fish have strong swimming ability, so it felt like I was catching a big fish, which was a lot of fun.

A must-have for tourists in Kamakura: 3 recommended cheap kimono rental plans!

2019/11/29

I feel that there is a trend these days where people are becoming less resistant to cosplay. A typical recent topic is Halloween, but the sight of people overflowing with disguised people on the streets seems like something that would have been unthinkable 10 years ago. Regarding Japanese clothing, which I will introduce this time, a new trend of "kimono boys" seems to be gradually gaining popularity, and there is information that the percentage of men and women who "wear kimonos at least once a month" is higher than the average for all generations (3.2%), with 20s (8.0%) and 30s (3.5%).

A tour of the Kirin Beer factory is recommended for an autumn outing!

2019/11/09

The plan we're introducing starts with a cruise from the nose of the Yokohama Pier statue. A guide will accompany you on the boat to and from the Kirin Beer Factory, so you'll be able to learn a lot about Yokohama. In addition to seeing the Red Brick Warehouse and Yokohama Landmark Tower, you'll also be able to get close to the U.S. military base, which is only accessible on a small boat, and see rare warships. The theme of the brewery is "The Secret to the Deliciousness of Kirin Beer." Here too, you'll be accompanied by a guide and be able to observe the beer manufacturing process.

Experience pottery at Tsurukawa Station on the Odakyu Line! Introducing a recommended plan for beginners!

2019/09/22

There are many creative ways to have fun in the fall, such as drawing and crafting, but the most representative leisure activity that involves experiencing making things is undoubtedly the "pottery experience". There are experience workshops in surprisingly familiar places such as shopping streets and corners of residential areas, so I'm sure there are many people who are interested in making their own original pottery someday. From full-scale courses using the electric potter's wheel, which is the most popular image of pottery, to hand-forming, coloring, and painting experiences that even children can participate in, the experience classes where you can make original plates, mugs, etc. are attractive because they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. For me, it is one of the most anticipated activities for fall 2019.

Even beginners can feel at ease! Introducing a flatfish fishing charter plan departing from Haneda in Ota Ward!

2019/09/12

What is called "kisu" in the market is actually called "shirogisu" and can be eaten as tempura, fried food, or sashimi if it is fresh. It is a fish that is relatively easy to catch even for beginners, but I think there are many people who are not good at fishing bait. Those squiggly, thin worm-like things are disgusting, and there is no way they could put them on a hook... For those people, a rubber fake will be fine. I think a fake would work.

If you are a beginner, try sabiki fishing for horse mackerel! We introduce 3 recommended Tokyo Bay fishing experience plans!

2019/08/27

When I searched for "horse mackerel fishing," the first thing I found was this fishing boat plan. It seems to be one of the most popular fishing plans within Activity Japan, and although it's a plan I've looked at before, I'd like to introduce it again. The fishing boat "Kamoshitamaru," which departs from Isogo Ward, Yokohama and heads for Tokyo Bay, offers the experience of "LT (light tackle) fishing," a type of fishing that uses equipment that is easy for beginners, children, and women to use. You can choose between a morning or afternoon trip, and they also provide transportation from Negishi Station. What's more, this plan can be booked at half price for women and children, making it a great deal! It's a plan that is sure to be booked in large numbers, so if you're interested, check out the details!

2019/08/23

For 3,240 yen, you can enjoy bouldering as much as you like between 11:00 and 23:00 on weekdays, and the initial registration fee is free, and rental shoes and chalk are also included in the price.

Departing from Kanazawa Hakkei Seaside Park in Kanagawa! Introducing the popular fishing boat and sea fishing experience plan!

2019/08/13

This time, we focused on this fishing boat boarding plan. It seems to be a popular plan that regularly ranks in Activity Japan's rankings, and the reviews and word-of-mouth from guests who have actually experienced it have an astonishing 5 out of 5! Among those comments, one that particularly stands out is "The staff were kind...", a very important point for fishing beginners. To be honest, with the recent fishing boom, there are many people who try it without knowing much about how to catch fish, how to attach bait, or things to be careful of when going on a fishing boat.

Let's start windsurfing at Shonan Kamakura and Yuigahama! Introducing recommended surf schools for beginners!

2019/07/21

Well, this time I'm interested in the "Windsurfing Half-Day School" held by a surf shop called "Kamakura Hi-surf"! I was interested in regular surfing and was planning to make my debut, so windsurfing was completely off my radar, but maybe because I'm getting older, I'm quite interested in it. I have the image that windsurfing is something that rich, grown-up people enjoy as a hobby. It's a bit old-fashioned, isn't it? lol

Summer 2019 is here! Make your surfing debut at the beginner surfing school in Shonan, the mecca for wave riding!

2019/07/18

The Kanto region's most well-known surfing 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. In the summer, you can often see surfers with surfboards or boards loaded onto beach cruisers at each beach. What's more, they range in age from young people who seem to be completely hooked on surfing to older men and women, and even some grandfathers. Perhaps the fact that such a wide range of surfers gather there is the reason it is a "holy land."

Easy access from Tokyo! The "Zen meditation experience" in Kamakura is a hot way to calm and refresh your mind!

2019/07/11

Zazen is a Zen practice in which you sit upright and concentrate your mind, and it is said that it is almost certain that the Buddha practiced zazen and yoga. It is a different concept from meditation, which involves closing your eyes and thinking. There are various ways to do it, so it is difficult to say anything definitive, but basically, you regulate your breathing, clear your mind of distractions, and calm your mind. Zazen meetings for beginners are held at temples and dojos, and are as popular as copying sutras and chanting sutras. There are many beginner seminars that you can easily participate in not only in places with many temples such as Kyoto, but also in Tokyo. It seems like it would be a good idea for foreign tourists. In this article, we will introduce a recommended plan for Kamakura, a tourist destination close to Tokyo.
