I went to the Blue Cave (Otaru Shioya)!!

Hello! This is Okashita.
The other day, all of our staff went to the Blue Cave (Otaru Shioya) for a training session to improve our sensibilities and senses !!
I was taken care of by
Blue Holic's instructor, Mr. Sato
Since it was a weekday, we had the boat to ourselves and enjoyed the caves and the ocean at a leisurely pace.
Blue Holic is the only company that can take you to the Blue Cave by sea kayak!!
Cute house♡
Change your clothes and head out to sea!
You will receive instruction on how to row on land and practice, so even first-timers can enjoy it without any problems!
This was a first time experience for all four of us!
As you go deeper and deeper
Wow, the ocean is vast!
Staff members Togashi and Miyazaki team are smooth sailing.
The teamwork was going well🚣‍♀️
The view of the ocean and the cliffs is just breathtaking...
The color of the sea is clear and beautiful.
I was impressed that such a wonderful place exists in Hokkaido.
There are lots of sea birds
I felt like I was in Jurassic Park 🪽
On the way, we passed through rocks
There are starfish attached to the rocks! I was amazed at the color of the starfish!
This kind of experience is only possible through sea kayaking😊
The colors that can only be created by nature are truly beautiful.
I burned the view into my memory!
Maybe one day I'll be able to express these colors in some way.
I was so impressed as I continued on…
Hmm? What?
There is only one person whose face is completely white...😂
(The one on the far right is Tatama. He's the manager.)
Tatama seems to have gotten seasick... lol
Even though there is a cave right in front of us... lol
Putting Tatama aside
So,
Are you all ready?
In Blue Cave
Please take a look at the emerald green!!
It's so beautiful, isn't it?
Transparent emerald green
The beauty of the reflected light was also amazing.
We came out of the cave🚣‍♀️
Unfortunately, Tatama seems to be seasick and doesn't remember this view lol 😂
And on the way back, we were given a special break on land☕️
The round-trip sea kayaking trip takes about two hours.
Thanks to my special friends
It was a fun and unforgettable memory!
They both arrived safely 🚣‍♀️
Tatama had returned earlier.
The person who was looking forward to this day the most was a sea scuba enthusiast and former diver...
Getting drunk...
We all burst out laughing.
And Blue Holic owners Kato and Sato
Thank you so much for the valuable experience!
I'm going to Okoppe in June.
I'm really looking forward to it now~♡
