[Chiba Prefecture: Kamogawa] I'm glad I went! Kamogawa Sea World
Kamogawa Sea World, located in Kamogawa, in the south of Chiba Prefecture, is an aquarium where you can see a killer whale show, one of only three in the country.
Located near the sea, the open-air facility has many creatures on display both indoors and outdoors. It's a wonderful theme park that I'm glad I went to.

[Chiba] An aquarium you can enjoy even in the rain
The show venue has a roof and there are many exhibits inside, so you can enjoy it even in bad weather. It is an aquarium where you can get fascinated with cute creatures. If you go to the Boso Peninsula in Chiba, I recommend you to visit Kamo Sea at least once. It is a recommended tourist spot.

Recommended Inn in Kamogawa - Toyomeiden
This is a hot spring inn located about 10 minutes by car from Kamogawa Sea World towards Katsuura.
This time we stayed in the most standard 8 tatami Japanese-style room. The room was very simple, but the large window had a wonderful view of the ocean (^^)
Both breakfast and dinner meals were delicious Japanese food, mainly fresh seafood from Boso!
The seasoning was sweet and gentle, and the atmosphere was nostalgic.
The portions were large, so I think men would be satisfied too!
There are private baths and large public baths, all of which are small, but there are only a few rooms, so we were able to relax without having to compete with other guests.

An aquarium where you can have a hands-on experience with animals!
Address: 1464-18 Higashimachi, Kamogawa, Chiba
Atmosphere/Facilities: When you enter the aquarium, the Pacific Ocean spreads out before your eyes! The aquarium is surprisingly spacious!
It has been about 50 years since it opened, but it is just as beautiful as a new aquarium!
Recommended points
①: If you stay at the adjacent Kamogawa Sea World Hotel, you can go to the aquarium as much as you like! (※From the check-in date to the check-out date)
②: You can enjoy shows featuring the kings of the sea, killer whales and dolphins! Let the killer whales bathe your entire body in seawater!
③: As part of the discovery guidance, you can experience interacting with belugas and dolphins, and you can also see the back of the aquarium that you normally can't see!
④: You can see the killer whales while eating at the restaurant "Ocean"!
⑤: There is also a shuttle bus from the nearest station (Awa-Kamogawa Station)!
Average price: Admission fee 3000 yen for adults, 1800 yen for children
Budget per person: 5000 yen
Rating: 4 stars
It's a very good aquarium, but I felt the prices of the restaurants and souvenirs were a little high, so I gave it 4 stars! (I can't help it though (^_^;))
As for the Kamogawa Sea World Hotel, the rooms had a slightly retro atmosphere!
I would recommend this place for a #couplestrip or #summertrip!

Enjoy wild game curry at a long-established hotel in Kamogawa
Hotel name:
Kamogawakan Chef Live Dining "MAIWAI"
Opening hours: 11:30-15:00 17:30-21:00
Address: 1179 Nishimachi, Kamogawa
Atmosphere/Facilities:
The oldest hotel in Kamogawa City. It was completely renovated in 2019. It was originally a ryokan, so the renovation has added a sense of calm and comfort.
Recommended points:
The restaurant itself has an open kitchen, so you can enjoy cooking in front of you, but there was no demonstration when I visited.
However, the restaurant seats themselves are spacious and about the same size as the sofas in a hotel lounge.
The menu mainly features seafood such as seafood bowls, but I had game curry. It was a venison and wild boar curry. There was no meaty smell and it was delicious.
Budget per person:
Lunch is generally priced between 1500 and 2000 yen

#Love the Moment
Beaches are one of the most popular vacation destinations that travelers flock to each year. Whether you are traveling for a family beach vacation or on a couple’s beach retreat, we have the beach hotels that will suit your needs. Going to the beach is said to relieve stress, help you sleep better, and up your vitamin D intake.
There’s nothing like a relaxing day at the beach to soak up all your worries. Just closing your eyes and imagining the soft sand caressing your toes as gentle waves lap the shore and the sun shines warmly down is enough to bring about a feeling of tranquillity.
It’s a summer adventure that never fails to yield tons of fun, no matter how many times you visit — the beach never gets old. It’s a place where all worries melt away in the summer heat as you lay under your beach tent or go swimming in the shimmering water.

Chasing Sakura at Tanjo-ji Temple Chiba
#cherryblossom25 🌸 Coming later this month: The early-blooming Kawazu Cherry Blossoms of southern Chiba!
*All photos taken February 20, 2024*
You may have recently seen the sakura forecasts which predict late-March as the best time to see cherry blossoms around Tokyo. What you won’t see in those official predictions though are the peaks of early-blooming varieties of sakura, including the bright pink Kawazu cherry blossoms of Chiba. Kawazu cherry trees tend to bloom earliest on the southern end of the Chiba peninsula, and these are two spots we checked out last February that we'd like to recommend to you. Please keep in mind, these spots are a bit off the beaten path, so we'd recommend visiting them by car.
🌸 About: While only a pair of Kawazu cherry trees stand beside the main hall of Tanjo-ji Temple, it still makes for one of our favorite hidden gem spring spots. This is due to its laid back seaside location and deep historic significance connected to the birth of Holy Priest Nichiren, the founder of Nichiren Buddhism.

A natural monument! Enjoy summer in Chiba at Tainoura!
Tai no Ura, within walking distance from Awa-Kominato Station in Chiba Prefecture, is famous for being able to see schools of sea bream!
There are also sightseeing boats where you can scatter bait from the boat and watch the sea bream swim on the surface of the water, making it a recommended spot for sightseeing in Chiba in the summer.
There are also many hot spring inns nearby, so if you want to enjoy both the sea and the hot springs, be sure to check it out♪
There is also a sea bream museum, where you can learn about the types of sea bream you can see in the area and the history of fishing. It's close to the station, so you can visit even without a car🚃

A spot you can get to easily from Tokyo! You'll feel like you're on a remote island as you watch the clear ocean 🌊🐚🫧
📍Kinosaki Beach
🌸Recommended points
Easy to get to from Tokyo! A spot where you can see the clear sea and feel like you're on a remote island🌊🐚🫧
Kinosaki Beach in Chiba can be used as a beach in the summer, but in the winter you can enjoy the clear sea with few people🫶
The water is so clear that you'll wonder if you're really in the city, and you can easily enjoy the feeling of traveling to Okinawa🎶
There are also lots of seashells, which you can collect and decorate as accessories or photo frames to make memories💖
Fireworks are also allowed, so you can enjoy swimming in the sea during the day and fireworks at night in the summer🥰

For dinner, we went to Yoshidaya, a private room restaurant in the Kamogawa area.
Seafood was the main dish.
The abalone was grilled in a private room, and the kids were very excited to see it. One of them even said it was a shame... 🥲
The kids could order a children's plate or a la carte, so we felt safe!
Because it was a private room, we could eat with the kids without worrying about the people around us, and we were able to have a meal together as a family for the first time in a while!
They also provided children's cutlery.

"HARUKA" hot spring pool on the rooftop of Kamogawakan
When I said "Let's go to pool!" my child looked at me with a puzzled expression and asked, "You mean a pool?"🤣
Special bathing suits are provided, and you can wear them. You can also bring your own swimsuit. We recommend that women bring their own.
When I looked into it, I found that the ones provided were too big for children,
"The children's jacket can be buttoned up at the crotch for small children, and can be worn as a single piece like a romper."

I stayed at Kamogawakan!
I stayed in a room with an open-air bath inside.
It was winter so it was a little cold, but there was a large hot spring in the basement so it was no problem.
On a different floor, it was a semi-open-air bath so you could enjoy the hot spring while looking at the view from your room!
It was a nice room with a view of the ocean! If you want to see the view, I recommend the 5th floor or higher! (It may depend on the room)

Tokyo Surroundings | 3 Days 2 Nights Chiba Sea Chasing Guide
|3 Days 2 Nights Chiba Sea Chasing Guide. When you feel overwhelmed by work and life, you really need a spontaneous trip to heal yourself. This time, I set off from Tokyo to the gentle sea of Chiba and spent a very pleasant three days and two nights there.
🚗Route Planning
Day 1: Tokyo → Kisarazu → Tateyama
Depart from Tokyo in the morning and arrive in Kisarazu. First, go to Kisarazu Unagiya for authentic eel rice. In the afternoon, head to Tateyama, enjoy the sea breeze at Tateyama Port, and admire the stunning sunset.
Day 2: Tateyama → Kamogawa → Minamiboso
Get up early to watch the sunrise, then head to Kamogawa, take a stroll in Kamogawa Sea World, and have an encounter with cute marine creatures. In the afternoon, go straight to Minamiboso, find a seaside cafe, and enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea.
Day 3: Minamiboso → Katsuura → Tokyo
After watching the last sunrise in Minamiboso, head to Katsuura for fresh seafood. Return to Tokyo after lunch.
🍱Food Recommendations
In addition to the Kisarazu eel rice mentioned earlier, Tateyama's seafood rice bowl is also not to be missed. Fresh sashimi is placed on top of the rice, and one bite is super satisfying. Katsuura's seafood barbecue is also great, with its original flavor.

Kamogawa Sea World|No happiness unless you get wet
Kamogawa Ocean World, a local friend introduced: This is the only place in Asia where you can see killer whales 🐳 performances [PuzzleUU]. Recalling that I was splashed with water by these guys ten years ago, I decided to come prepared this time: equipped with a raincoat and an umbrella☂️, who is afraid of who [Spoof][Laugh]!
The 20-minute show was very, very, very exciting, and it seemed much smarter than the killer whales in Los Angeles [Askance][Yeah]. Three killer whales appeared at the same time, jumping, spinning, dancing, and making mischief... one after another. Although the audience in the first 8 rows were fully armed, they still excitedly and happily accepted the situation and got soaked [Sob][Yeah][Grin]!
Figures 1-3: The exciting double whale show
Figure 4: The Water Splashing Festival led by killer whales;
Figure 6: Master, please give me some food.
Figure 7: Happy wet father and son;
💰Average consumption:
Admission to Kamogawa Ocean World: RMB 160 per person
Buffet lunch: 68 yuan/person
📝Note tips:
There are three killer whale shows a day, so please pay attention to the show time after entering!
