"Gotemba Water Turtle House" is back again this year!

You can see at a glance that it has been scaled up from last year. It is also set up closer to the beach than last year, and there are now floats leading to the playground equipment.

Staffed reception, security box, and restrooms available for your peace of mind.

◆Please make sure to complete the check-in process 30 minutes before entry!

First, check in at the office. Reservations on the official website are sure and profitable.

It seems that popular days and times are sold out😲

Also, if you are a junior high school student, you will need a written consent form from your guardian, so don't forget to prepare in advance.

For elementary school students and younger, one guardian (20 years or older) is required for every two children.

Children under elementary school age may enter the kids' area free of charge, but each child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

After checking in, put on your life jacket and listen to the entrance rules explained in front of the facility.

(I want to get in early, but listen carefully!)

Please note that if you are late, you may not be able to enter.

Please read the ``Terms of Use'', ``Rules'', ``Prohibitions'', and ``Cautions'' on the official website before visiting.

Play equipment with safety measures that Water Kame House is proud of

When it comes to water athletic equipment, the dangerous part is the connection between the play equipment. ``Water Turtle House'' uses play equipment with well-covered joints.

🌀 Overcoming last year's typhoon damage 💪

Last year, Typhoons 6 and 7 caused so much damage to Gotemba Beach that the topography changed, including the Water Turtle House and the surrounding beach houses.

Based on that experience, they have increased the number of fixing devices this year and are putting even more effort into safety management.

Please follow the instructions of the staff in the event of sudden weather changes. (Representative Wakabayashi)

While running a transportation business, I suddenly got my hands on a drone and fell in love with it, so I started a drone business. Currently, we use aerial photography to convey various charms and individualities that cannot be seen from the human perspective.
I have a deep connection with Mie Prefecture both in my private and public life, and I learned that there are many attractive things, things, and places. I would like to convey the charm of Mie Prefecture from a perspective that is not usually seen, and deliver the desire to "go, learn, and feel"!
