Genkai Underwater Observation Tower
2024 Karatsu City, Saga Prefecture
The waters around Cape Hado, where the Genkai Underwater Observatory is located, were designated as part of the quasi-national park "Genkai Underwater Park" (now Genkai Sea Area Park) in 1970 as Japan's first underwater park. This facility opened in 1974 as the only underwater observatory on the Sea of Japan side. Connected to the land of Cape Hado by an 86-meter-long pier, the observation room is 20 meters high and 10 meters in diameter, and located 7 meters deep. Through 24 underwater windows, you can see a variety of fish swimming, seaweed, and shellfish in their natural state. In addition, from the sea deck, you can see the islands of the Genkai Sea on three sides. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of its opening, the facility will be reopened for the first time on April 1, 2024, and will be the first of the seven underwater observatories in the country to introduce projection mapping, allowing you to enjoy an immersive experience as if you were in the sea while watching real fish. Our company was involved from the basic concept stage and was responsible for everything from design, content planning and production to PR work at the time of opening.
