Press release: May 16, 2025 To members of the media [Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise] “~Connecting the Sea and the Future~ Amagi Town Tourism Promotion and Products Fair in Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise” [Saturday, May 24th and Sunday, May 25th, 2025] First time at Sea Paradise! Experience the charm of “Amagi Town” on Tokunoshima Island in Kagoshima Prefecture up close! “Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise” will be holding an event to promote “Amagi Town” in Kagoshima Prefecture, “Connecting the Sea and the Future” for two days only on Saturday, May 24th and Sunday, May 25th, 2025. “Amagi Town Tourism Promotion and Product Fair in Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise” will be held. “Amagi Town” is a region located in the northwest of Tokunoshima, which is in the center of the Amami Islands in Kagoshima Prefecture. In 2019, at the request of “Amagi Town,” our facility conducted a marine environmental survey (inspection of the natural environment of the island and diving surveys, etc.) as part of the promotion of fisheries, and was able to see the island’s rich nature and the diversity of life it creates. In order to let more people know about its charm, we are holding a collaborative exhibition themed on the sea of Tokunoshima at the aquarium “Aqua Museum” LABO10 “Schools of fish that color the coral reefs”. And so, we decided to hold this fair for a limited time, with the hope that people would be able to experience the culture and charm of “Amagi Town” up close. During the fair, there will be a variety of events, including a “special talk show” by former Amagi Town Regional Project Manager Masakazu Mashiko and the zookeepers, a “food present time for the fishes,” a “coral planting experience” program to raise awareness of coral reefs and marine environment conservation, a “shimauta mini live (May 24th only)” by a singer from Amagi Town, and a “specialty product sale” of Amagi Town. Enjoy the charm of Amagi Town, where rich nature and unique culture still remain, up close.

In addition, at the “Food Time for the Fish” event that will be held after the talk show, a container that resembles a bottle of brown sugar shochu, a Tokunoshima specialty, will be placed underwater and food will be dispensed from the container and given to the fish. You can see up close the fish that usually hide in the gaps between the rocks and come out to eat the food.
