Depart from Sapporo and head to the Shakotan Peninsula, famous for its impossibly clear, emerald-blue waters. For optional, start by hopping on a sightseeing cruise to feel the refreshing sea breeze and witness the vibrant ocean up close. For those who prefer not to board the cruise, enjoy time relaxing in the surrounding area as Cape Ōgon.

For lunch, treat yourself to fresh local seafood during your free time around “Fuji Sushi.” Afterwards, walk through a mysterious dark tunnel to be greeted by the magical, panoramic ocean views of the Shimamui Coast.

Next, visit Cape Kamui, where you can take a calm and emotional walk along the scenic ridge stretching out into the sea, fully absorbing the magnificent nature of Hokkaido.

Conclude your day in Otaru, a romantic port city. Enjoy a peaceful stroll along the historic Otaru Canal, listen to the delicate chimes at the Music Box Museum, and soak in the retro atmosphere. Return to Sapporo with a heart full of beautiful maritime memories.
