Busena Marine Park, opened in 1970, is Okinawa's main island's only underwater observation tower. Built by the Okinawa Tourism Development Corporation (now the Okinawa Convention & Visitors Bureau), it has been a beloved attraction for many tourists since before the reversion of Okinawa to Japan. The underwater observation tower is connected to the land via a footbridge, with a spiral staircase leading down to a depth of 5 meters. A circular window at the bottom allows for close-up observation of tropical fish and coral reefs. The observation deck also offers stunning views of the vast Pacific Ocean and the beautiful Busena Resort. The glass-bottom boat is a whale-shaped sightseeing vessel that departs from and returns to the western coast of Busena Cape. With its glass bottom, you can observe tropical fish and coral reefs while enjoying a unique perspective of the underwater world. Busena Marine Park is a popular spot for tourists to fully appreciate Okinawa's natural beauty and stunning seascape. Furthermore, the tip and west coast of Busena Cape, where the park is located, is developed as the Busena Resort, featuring luxurious hotels, restaurants, and shops. When visiting Busena Marine Park, consider staying at or dining in the Busena Resort.
