海ほたるパーキングエリア

Umihotaru Parking Area

Umihotaru Parking Area is located on the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line, which connects Kawasaki City in Kanagawa Prefecture with Kisarazu City in Chiba Prefecture. It is built on a 650-meter-long artificial island surrounded by the sea on all sides. From the facility, visitors can enjoy a panoramic view of Tokyo Bay, and the views from the observation deck on clear days are especially breathtaking. The five-story building is equipped with restaurants, shopping areas, and refreshment facilities, allowing guests to enjoy meals and shopping with a view of the sea from each floor. As a tourist spot, it features attractions such as the "Time Capsule Post," the "Bell of Happiness," and Japan's only game center located within a parking area, offering a variety of entertainment options. The Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line itself is 15.1 kilometers long, and the underwater tunnel section is the longest of its kind for a highway in the world. Note that Umihotaru can get crowded on weekends and holidays, so plan accordingly.
