Note: This event has already passed.

Take a 5-minute boat ride to an unexplored region of Izu Peninsula, Hirizohama. Due to its geographical environment, ocean transparency in this area is 7m, the best place for snorkeling! The Kuroshio Current (Japan Black Tide) is running thru this area, so the water temperature is pretty warm and you will be able to see a variety of tropical migratory fish and coral.

Bring:  Bathing suit, (Wetsuits,) Mask, Snorkel, Marine boots, Fins, Life Jacket, Anti fog spray, Towel, Sunprotect items (sunscreen, beach tent etc.) Beach blanket, Lunch/Snacks/Water, (Ice chest,) Yen for anything you may need.

*It may be cancelled with short notice due to inclement weather/ocean condition.
