Experience daily life in Okoppé at the direct sales corner displaying local agricultural and dairy products

About this spot

A Doaji (wayside station) in the central part of Okoppé facing the Okhotsk Sea, which is also the venue for tonight's summer festival and fireworks display. Inside the station, there's a direct sales corner displaying local agricultural products, seafood, and dairy products with a selection unique to this ranch town. It's enjoyable just to browse. The light food corner is also perfect for having a meal before starting your day. Since the same location transforms into a fireworks viewing venue at night, get a sense of the grounds and atmosphere during the day.

Tips

荒天時は中止や延期の可能性があるため、当日の開催可否は興部町の公式発表で確認を。終了後は駐車場からの車の出庫が混み合うため、フィナーレ後は少し余韻を楽しんでから移動するのがおすすめです。周辺は街灯が少ないため、スマホのライトなど足元を照らせるものがあると安心です。

Tips

Located in the town center with car access as the basic transportation. The parking lot gets crowded from evening onward on summer festival day, so stopping by during the day allows you to look around at a relaxed pace. With restrooms and rest areas, you can use it as a base for the entire day.
