Summer Experiences

Small groups. Local knowledge. Real Hokkaido.

The waters around Otaru are something else — sea cliffs, clear bays, open Pacific. We put you in them with the right guide, the right gear, and nothing you don't need.

SUP on the ocean

On the Water

Ocean SUP & Snorkeling

Glide along the sea cliffs and hidden coves of Hokkaido's coastline on a stand up paddleboard. Our guided sessions launch from calm protected bays just outside Otaru— perfect for beginners — with longer open-water routes available for more experienced paddlers. All equipment provided.

Local Guide

City Concierge

Make the most of your time in and around Sapporo with someone who actually knows it. Restaurant picks, sake brewery visits, canal walks, day trips into the Hokkaido interior — we handle the details so the day feels effortless.

A Private, Hidden Cove

Our launch point sits right next to the Otaru Geihinkan — far from crowded public beaches. The water is crystal clear, the marine life is rich, and on calm days the surface looks like glass.
