Memanbetsu Airport
Kick off to a big adventure at that the Sea of Okhotsk, starting at Memanbetsu Airport.
Set in Ozora Town on the Sea of Okhotsk side, Memanbetsu Airport is the gateway to northeastern Hokkaido. It offers daily direct flights to Tokyo and Sapporo, with seasonal flights to Nagoya and Osaka.
A trip to the Okhotsk region brings the promise of great big nature, including world heritage site Shiretoko and majestic drift ice, as well as local specialties like seafood nurtured by the Sea of Okhotsk and bounties from across the land.
To the northeast of Memanbetsu Airport lies Abashiri, home to the Abashiri Prison Museum and drift ice sightseeing boats, while to the west is Kitami, a business hub known for its grilled meat. Memanbetsu Airport is conveniently situated between these two cities, meaning you can get to either with ease.
The airport’s five souvenir shops carry a wide range of items, from classic Hokkaido souvenirs to local specialties from the Okhotsk area. There’s even a spot to grab a bowl of soup curry or sushi to cap off your Hokkaido trip in style.
