Tourist facilities information around the hotel

We introduce tourist spots in Okhotsk where you may enjoy contrasts of all four seasons....

Sightseeing Icebreaker Garinko-go

“Garinko”plies the ice field by slicing through drift ice in winter, and cruises the Okhotsk-blue sea in summer. Both are refreshing!

Okhotsk Tower

The Okhotsk Tower is an iced sea view tower, where you may observe the seabed from the window as if you were a diver, and enjoy 360-degree panoramic views of the magnificent Sea of Okhotsk. Ice ducks show up as well as seals. How about taking a look at the casts on the lighted up stage that is 10 meters below the surface of the sea in summer season (May–Oct.)?

Okhotsk Sea Ice Museum “GIZA”

Visit “GIZA”if you would like to learn drift ice and the Sea of Okhotsk in detail. You may view the images of drift ice and experience a midwinter temperature of 20 degrees below zero.

Okhotsk Tokkari Center

About 30 seals, such as Gamafu seals (harbor seals) popular in Okhotsk, are swimming cheerfully in the huge pool. As they show their charming performances, be sure to check the feeding time in advance.

Omusaro Natural Flower Garden/Omusaro Nature View House/Cape Drift Ice

In summer, the garden is a treasure trove of flowers, such as Hamanasu(rugosa roses) and the other many sorts of seaside plants and wildflowers. The serene view and balmy sea breeze will make you refreshed. In winter, drift ice washed up to the beach overlaps one another, and then drift ice mountain range is created. Please do not overlook this spot.
