"Ocean Expo Park"

Established in 1976 on the site of the 1975 Okinawa International Ocean Exposition, Ocean Expo Park is a national park located in subtropical Okinawa, facing the East China Sea. The expansive grounds preserve the spirit and legacy of the Expo, which envisioned 'the sea and its desirable future,' featuring diverse facilities that allow visitors to experience the 'sun, flowers, and sea' through authentic encounters. Must-see world-class attractions include the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, where visitors can fully immerse themselves in Okinawa's marine life; the Ocean Culture Museum, which showcases coastal lifestyles and cultures; and the Tropical Dream Center, a spiritual power spot where the vitality of nature—foundation of both sea and humanity—is felt through ancient ruins and tropical plants. Ocean Expo Park is a place to reflect on humanity’s relationship with the sea, re-examine our understanding of the world through diverse global cultures and long histories, and explore a sustainable future for the ocean. Begin your journey with the 'beautiful sea' and discover the timeless culture and history that lie beyond.
