Seabirds and Blue Sea from Seabird Observation Hut Floating on Sea -Chidorigaura-enchi in Teuri Island-

July 6th, 2016

Chidorigaura-enchi (千鳥ケ浦園地) is located in the southern part of Teuri Island (天売島) and is located on almost height above sea level of Teuri Island. Seabird Observation Hut (海鳥観察舎) is built on a cilff with about 180 m in height. A view from a parking lot is nice, and Yezo Lily flower along a path with about 100 m in length to the Seabird Observation Hut and the scenery with the blue sea is very nice, too. I am sure that this sea is very beautiful blue even if I compare the color of this sea with the sea of Shakotan (積丹) and the sea of Rebun Island and Rishiri Island (利尻礼文). A telescope that visitors can observe breeding grounds of seabirds freely is provided at the Seabird Observation Hut just like floating on the sea. The breeding season is from June through August. There is a free parking lot at the site. Admission free and the parking lot is free of charge.
