Busena Marine Park is located on a small peninsula south of Nago city, in northern Okinawa. It is the ideal place where visitors of all ages can get in touch with the ocean, without really having to... touch the ocean! How? Let's find it out! Let's begin from the most famous feature of the park, the underwater observatory. It is a tower that dives 5 meters below the sea level. The tower is located 170 meters from the cape and is reachable through a boardwalk that passes over the sea. Once having reached the tower, visitors will be able to descend under the sea level and get a 360-degrees view of the sea bottom from the 24 windows spread across the floors. It will feel like being in a submarine. This is the closest you can get to the coral reef and its amazing marine creatures without having to get wet! The water around Busena Marina Park is extremely clear, and it will be possible to spot many species of fish playing in the coral reef, like the Clownfish, the Butterfly fish, the Zebra Angelfish and many more. The other attraction of the marine park is a whale-shaped glass-bottom boat. Its central wide floor glass will let you admire the amazing colors of the tropical fish and the coral reef. Don't forget that there is an incredible view not only through the glass, but also around you! Please, note that especially this activities will depend greatly on the weather of the day. Did you Know? From the ticket booth, there are free shuttle buses operating every 20 minutes that drives along the coast and will lead you to the Glass-bottom boat dock and the Underwater Observatory. Families with elder people and small kids will be able to reach the attractions in a quick and relaxing way. Besides the two activities, the atmosphere in Busena Marine Park is very enjoyable. Surrounded by a beautiful sea and constantly refreshed by the marine breeze, this park offers an amazing location by the sea where to get closer to the beautiful marine life surrounding the Okinawa island.
