One of Sado Island’s main attractions is the sparkling sea that surrounds it. We’ve planned some fun ways for you to enjoy the clear blue waters during Earth Celebration. Grab this chance to create great memories out on the water!

How about a tub boat ride in the evening? As day transitions into night, you might be able to observe glowing sea creatures below and the starry night sky above you, while cruising through the torch-lit volcanic rocks inside the bay bordering on Shukunegi Village.
