Oarai, located almost in the center of the Pacific coast of Ibaraki Prefecture, is a wonderful town full of attractions with a mild climate that is comfortable all year round, rich nature, beautiful scenery, and fresh seafood. The Oarai Isosaki Shrine, which enshrines the gods who reigned over the reef, is famous as a SNS spot together with the torii of Kamiiso floating in the Pacific Ocean. In addition, Japan's top-class aquarium "Aqua World Ibaraki Prefecture Oarai Aquarium", two attractive beaches "Oarai Sun Beach" and "Oarai Kaigan" where you can swim and play on the seashore, Oarai where you can see a large panorama from a height of 55m. There are plenty of sightseeing spots that you can fully enjoy, such as the symbol "Oarai Marine Tower"! You can enjoy fresh seafood such as Oarai specialties such as "raw whitebait" that can only be tasted in the production area, "monkfish" that was loved by the shogun, rock oysters, and clams.
