Sea Kayaking Tour – Otaru Coastal Adventure

The stunning Shakotan - Otaru coastline is only truly experiened from on the water and there is no better way than in a sea kayak on a fully guided tour. Paddle over pristine blue water whilst exploring the cliffs, caves and bays in Hokkaido's only Marine Park.

Our fully guided sea kayaking tours explore the scenic coastline of Shioya and typically last about 2 hours. Tours run only during calm conditions for your safety and comfort. We use stable double kayaks that are easy to paddle, suitable for all levels including first-timers and elementary school students. We also have two single kayaks, allowing us to accommodate up to 12 adult guests per tour. Life jackets are provided for all, and non-swimmers are welcome. Our certified Kayak Instructors are insured and trained in First Aid, ensuring a professional and secure experience on the water. Launching from Shioya Beach, we paddle along dramatic cliffs and hidden coves, through waters few people ever get to see. We stop at a secluded beach for a swim in crystal-clear water. Along the way, you'll likely encounter sea urchins, starfish, vibrant seaweed, and seabirds soaring above this protected marine environment. More than just sightseeing, this tour is a chance to disconnect, slow down, and experience the raw beauty of Hokkaido’s coastline.
