Set off on an adventure to the treehouse while enjoying the breathtaking scenery of the “San’in Kaigan UNESCO Global Geopark”!
You’ll encounter various kinds of fish, sea urchins, and starfish as you paddle through narrow, steep rock formations and inside caves♪
Our instructors’ talks on the ecology of these marine creatures are also very popular!
What is a Geopark?
A nature park where you can learn about and enjoy the landforms and geology created by the Earth’s natural processes.
It’s an international certification system supported by UNESCO, and the San’in Kaigan Geopark was one of the first sites in Japan to receive this designation.
