Noboribetsu Marine Park Nixe
A majestic marine kingdom in a Danish-style castle
Step into the striking Nixe Castle, inspired by a medieval Danish fortress, and discover a world where ocean life unfolds in a truly magical setting.
Beyond the red-brick walls, a towering 8-meter tank rises before you, filled with vibrant tropical fish gliding through shimmering blue water. Light ripples across the walls, creating a scene that feels almost like a living painting.
Your journey continues into the castle’s Aqua Tunnel, where cold- and warm-current seas come to life. Fish drift gracefully below, while sharks and rays sweep overhead. Surrounded by shimmering schools of fish and the gentle rhythm of the water, you’ll feel as if you’ve stepped into the ocean itself.
One of the highlights is one of Hokkaido’s largest jellyfish exhibits, where softly glowing forms drift in a calm, mesmerizing display. The popular Penguin Parade, held year-round, brings you up close to these charming birds as they waddle by.
At the Interactive Zone, you can touch marine creatures and experience the cool seawater firsthand—an engaging and memorable experience for visitors of all ages.
