Tourism EXPO Japan 2025 Aichi/Central Japan
Keramashoto National Park
The Kerama Islands (Japanese: Keramashoto) were designated a National Park on March 5th (Coral Day), 2014. Keramashoto National Park is made up of two villages: Tokashiki Village and Zamami Village, and is located about 40 km west of Okinawa's main island. Its landscape consists of many islands and the surrounding sea, whose distinctive color is known as "Kerama Blue", and which is densely populated by coral reefs with around 248 different coral species. It is also a breeding ground for humpback whales. With the sea accounting for more than 90% of its total area, with 90,475 ha of sea for 3,520 ha of land, Keramashoto National Park is a maritime National Park.
Marine activities such as scuba diving, stand-up paddling, snorkeling, or kayaking can be enjoyed regardless of the season. Whale-watching is also popular, with humpback whales visiting each year between December and March to breed and raise their young. Both villages in the National Park have their own whale-watching association, each with self-imposed rules for respectful observation. These efforts, undertaken with environmental consideration, aim to create a "sea where whales and humans coexist sustainably for the next 100 years".
