Activity itinerary

Shakotan glass boat tour

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Experience the profound beauty of "Shakotan Blue," the brilliantly clear ocean waters crafted by Hokkaido's majestic nature, aboard the underwater observation boat "New Shakotan-go."

Ogon Cape

  • 1h
If you prefer not to board the New Shakotan Cruise, you also have the wonderful option to explore Cape Ōgon, located right next to the pier! Named after the dazzling golden sparkle of the sea during the historic herring runs, this cape offers a calm and emotional scenic beauty that gently touches the heart, rather than overwhelming thrills.

Fuji Sushi (Shakotan Honten)

  • 50m
The ultimate "Uni-don" (sea urchin rice bowl), available exclusively during the summer season, elevates the elegance of your journey with its rich, creamy texture and gentle ocean scent. Rather than stimulating flavors, this place focuses on the pure essence of nature's ingredients. Enjoy a meticulously prepared meal in a quiet, tranquil atmosphere and let it gently soothe your senses. It serves as the perfect gourmet resting place on your journey from Sapporo, offering an emotional and heartwarming culinary experience.

Shimamui Coast

  • 20m
A surreal blue light that magically unfolds before your eyes after passing through a dark pedestrian tunnel, "Shimamui Coast" is a lyrical scenic masterpiece of Shakotan. With only the sound of waves echoing quietly, this place offers one of the purest and most peaceful landscapes gifted by Hokkaido's majestic nature.

Cape Kamui

  • 1h 30m
The ultimate symbol of Shakotan, "Cape Kamui," where you can simultaneously feel the majesty and profound tranquility of Hokkaido's great nature. As you take a slow, gentle walk along "Charenka's Path," the trail that follows the ridge extending toward the sea, the endlessly stretching, crystal-clear "Shakotan Blue" ocean provides a deeply moving and lyrical touch that seems to comfort your entire heart. Standing at the very edge of the cape, entrust yourself to the gentle breeze and gaze at the vast horizon, letting all the complex thoughts of daily life quietly drift away into the calm waves.

Otaru Sakaimachi Street

  • 1h
A nostalgic street where the romance and memories of Hokkaido's pioneer era still lovingly linger—Otaru's emotional walking path, "Sakaimachi Street." The clear, soft melodies of beautifully crafted music boxes echo quietly through the streets, while exquisite glass crafts tenderly capture the hearts of travelers. Sit in a sweet dessert cafe like LeTAO, enjoy the comfort of a warm cup of tea, and quietly embrace Otaru's unique, calming, and warm sensibility that soothes the mind.
