Yumekukan (夢喰間) is a shop run by Yumekukan Corp. at Roadside Station "Sarufutsu Park (さるふつ公園)" in Sarufutsu village located in the southeastern part of Wakkanai city, and has opened a business since 2006. Mr. Norio Hasegawa (長谷川 憲男) is a company president. Sarufutsu Park facing the Sea of Okhotsk is next to very large ranch, so visitors can view magnificent nature. Indigirka memorial monument (インディギルカ号遭難者慰霊碑), Sarufutsu Ikoi-no-Yu (さるふつ憩いの湯) and so on are built at the site.

The Sarufutsu is the most scallop landed town in Japan, so it is famous for the scallop. Fishermen discharge the scallops into the sea, and they raise those up for 5 years in the sea. Natural scallops that are not cultured scallops turn into sweet thick flesh with high quality.

The area is 3,927 ha. Groups of lakes and swamps such as Lake Kutcharo (クッチャロ湖), wild flowers in Beniya Primitive Flower Garden (ベニヤ原生花園), and wild birds such as Motacilla Flava and Swan can be observed in this area. A lot of tourists do not come. The natural park has been chosen as one of 100 Unexplored Regions in Japan (日本の秘境100選), and is contained in 500 Important Wetlands in Japan (日本の重要湿地500). A straight road without signals is one of worth seeing places, too. Tourists can enjoy the nature of the typical Hokkaido without being crowded.
