In winter, drift ice from the Sea of ​​Okhotsk drifts to Hokkaido. In the coastal city of Monbetsu, you can take an icebreaker to go sightseeing. Watching the ships ride the wind and waves on the thick ice, you seem to gain unlimited courage 👉 Come and break the first piece of ice in the new year❗

A northern city in Hokkaido, Japan, facing the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the name comes from the Ainu word &quot;mo-pet&quot;, which means quiet river. It is famous for being very suitable for watching winter drift ice
👉In addition to drift ice, if you are lucky, you may also see wild animals including sea snails (a translucent conch, commonly known as &quot;sea angels&quot;), white-tailed sea eagles and seals.
