Embark on a journey to learn about the lake's ecosystem with a marine adventurer guide!
Come on a guided tour with a marine adventurer who has traveled around the world by kayak! You can learn about the importance of nature and how to enjoy it by observing living creatures and marine plants in Lake Hamana, one of the most famous brackish lakes in Japan, located in Shizuoka Prefecture.
This area has shallow tidal flats, making it safe for families and people who are not good at swimming. The meeting place will be at Bentenjima Seaside Park, which is only a 3-minute walk from the JR station, about 90 minutes from both Tokyo and Osaka.
Just a few minutes after getting off the train, a breathtaking view of Lake Hamana, which connects to the Pacific Ocean, will open up before your eyes.
