About Hokkaido's Blue Cave Cruise Promotional Video This promotional video, titled "Otaru, Hokkaido - Tsuusen's Original Blue Cave Cruise" (【北海道・小樽】元祖!青の洞窟クルーズbyツウセン), was released by "ACTIVITY JAPAN." It focuses on the Blue Cave Cruise that sails out from the Otaru Canal and goes around the Marine Park. The well-organized cruise tour takes you to the best sightseeing spots by boat, so you can enjoy Hokkaido's vast sea. The video captures the cobalt blue ocean and the marvelous sunset. This article will delve into some of the charms of Otaru, Hokkaido's Blue Cave Cruise. About the Blue Cave Cruise Source :YouTube screenshot Sailing out from the Otaru Canal, the Blue Cave Cruise offers you a great experience to enjoy the vast sea of Hokkaido. Sea birds elegantly flying in the air, the stunning rocks structures... you'll probably even see a dolphin or shark on your way there as well. This coastal area was once called "Shu-ya" in Ainu language, which can be loosely translated as "Kettle Rock". The main attraction of the cruise is the blue cave located on the shore in Niseko-Shakotan-Otaru Kaigan Quasi National Park. When you enter the cave, you'll notice how the water turns turquoise blue. In the video, the boat enters the cave at 0:17. The awesome beauty of the blue pool inside the cave is certainly worth seeing. photo: Otaru's Blue cave entrance Located on the shore of Shakotan Peninsula, the blue cave was formed by strong sea waves. It's known for its apparent luminescent quality, imparted by the light passing through the openings. Its unique geographical formation and the angle of the sunlight flooding in create a series of magical scenes. Other marine activities, such as snorkeling, sea kayaking, boat cruises, and rafting are also offered in the area. When you hear "blue cave," it might be the Blue Grotto in Italy that first comes to mind. Japan, however, features several blue sea caves including the one in Otaru. Some other well known blue caves in Japan are: - Hachinoheana in Iwate Prefecture - Dogashima Sea Cave Skylight in Shizuoka Prefecture - Cape Maeda in Okinawa - San-in Coast National Park in Hyogo Prefecture. Highlights of the Blue Cave Cruise Source :YouTube screenshot The cruise offers you a great opportunity to take in the natural beauty of Hokkaido. You can enjoy a quiet time admiring the beautiful expanse of the sea, and the luxury of having the aromatic sea breeze fill your nose as it brushes your cheeks. If the weather is clear you can catch a gorgeous sunset, as seen in the video from 1:05. Sea birds, such as seagulls, black-tailed gull, and white-tailed sea eagles often fly around the cruise boat and you can enjoy feeding them as well. This is shown in the video at 0:58.

Fujido Cave Photo:Fujido Cave A limestone cave is a natural cave that is formed over a long period of time by the gradual erosion of limestone rock due to the inflow of underground water. It's said that the Ueno-village area, where Fujido Cave is located, was once covered with a deep virgin forest. Villagers in the area discovered the cave about 1,200 years ago, and since then, the cave has been used as a place for Buddhist training. In the Fujido Cave, the Fujido Yayoi Matsuri (festival) is held every March. Through the festival, people pray for the safety of the Fuji cave, the largest cave in the Kanto region. Highlights of Fujido Cave! Source :YouTube screenshot You can see the exploration of Fujido Cave at 0:38 in the video. At the end of a 120-meter underground tunnel, visitors climb up a 40-meter pit staircase to find a spacious limestone cave.

Iheya Island - A Tropical Travel Destination in Okinawa!

This Introductory Video of Iheya Island, Okinawa, Shows the Incredibly Beautiful, Dreamlike Scenery of the Island This introductory video, "The Mystic 'Iheya Island'" (神秘の島「伊平屋島」) was produced by the Iheya Island Tourist Association using aerial drone footage. You'll see the incredibly beautiful scenery of the isolated Iheya Island, in Okinawa. Iheya Island is a remote island with breathtakingly clear, pristine waters and nature. It is even famous in Okinawa, one of Japan's most popular tourist resorts. In this article, you'll find recommendations for places to see and things to do around Iheya Island, Okinawa. The video shows aerial photos of the emerald green coral reefs and the natural mountains of Iheya Island in Okinawa. You'll be astonished watching the video and realizing that such beauty exists in Japan. All About Iheya Island, Okinawa Photo:Iheya Island's sandy beach and sea Iheya Island is located 117 km north of Naha on the main island of Okinawa, a part of Japan's southwestern archipelago. It is also north of the main island of Okinawa, 41.1 km from Nakijinson Kamiunten harbor, a ferry depot in the northernmost inhabited island of Okinawa. At southern end of Iheya Island, there is Izena Island. Iheya Island is a mysterious island where the original landscape of Okinawa has been preserved, and many legends and gods continue to live on. Iheya Island (Area: 20.66km2 Perimeter: 34.23km) is a long, thin island connected to Noho Island (Area: 1.06km2 Perimeter: 4.8km) by the Noho bridge and as of July, 2009, has a population of 1,405. To get to Iheya Island, you can take a bus or car from Naha Airport on the main island of Okinawa to Unten Port in Nakijin Village where the ferry dock is located. An 80-minute ride on the ferry takes you to Iheya Island. As there are only two ferry services a day, and a day trip is difficult, we recommend spending at least one night on Iheya Island. Local transportation is either rental cars, taxis, the island's community bus, or rental bicycles, as well as the ferry that takes you to Iheya Island. It's also possible to bring your own car onto the ferry as well. If the weather is good, we recommend renting a bicycle to see the island and enjoy the natural scenery. Touristic Information to Enjoy Iheya's Beautiful Emerald Green Sea Photo:Sea turtle The brilliant emerald-green sea shown in the video is so beautiful that you might feel like you're dreaming. The sea is transparent up to 50 meters and the view of a small boat casting its shadow on the seafloor is fantastic. You can see this amazing scenery from 1:12 in the video. The sea of Iheya Island is comparably beautiful to that of popular Yaeyama Island and Miyako Island. In these beautiful waters, you can enjoy coral reefs, marine life, snorkeling, diving, sea kayaking and other marine sports, as well as fishing to your heart's content. The beaches which are worth visiting on Iheya Island are ‘Kumaya beach’ for fishing, and ‘Suga-hama’ and ‘Yonesaki-kaigan’ for enjoying beautiful scenery. Because there are only two ferries a day and no large tourist facilities, there are very few tourists in Okinawa, so you can enjoy the sea to your heart's content, as it is a lesser-known beach in Okinawa. White sandy beaches with endless blue skies and seas await you. Enjoy the Sights and Sounds of Iheya Island Photo:Hiramatsu Starting at 1:31 in the video, the sights of Iheya Island, with its unspoiled nature and culture, are introduced. One of the must-see spots is “Kumaya Cave” which is said to be the southernmost place related to a legend about Amaterasu Omikami. Japan has a lot of places where the “Amano Iwato legend” allegedly took place. The natural light that floods the cave is so magical and Instagram-worthy. It's also a popular power spot not to be missed when visiting Iheya Island. At 1:46 in the video, “Nento hiramatsu” is also a popular touristic spot on Iheya Island and visitors will be overwhelmed when they see the branches of the “Ryukyu matsu” looming over them. We also recommend visiting the Iheya Lighthouse from which you can overlook the whole of Iheya Island. This can be seen in the video from 1:51. You can enjoy a spectacular view of nature with 200-meter-high mountains and blue waters. There are also plenty of other places with beautiful scenery as well. From 1:58 on the video, “Yahe Rock” is a historical place and said to be the ruins of an old castle that protected the island from the Nakijin army. The sunset seen through the rocky mountains quite the spectacle as well. If you're looking for something good to eat, be sure to try the fresh seafood dishes on Iheya Island. As it's surrounded by the sea, it has some of the freshest seafood you can get! After a day of fishing, a seaside BBQ with the fish you caught will make for an unforgettable experience.
