Hakkeijima, Artificial island with leisure complex in Kanazawa-ku, Japan

Hakkeijima encompasses a large aquarium housing 120,000 sea creatures across 700 species, entertainment facilities, restaurants, hotels, and shopping areas within its perimeter.

The development of Hakkeijima began with the construction of the Kanazawa Seaside Line station in 1989, marking the start of its transformation into a major leisure destination.

The island integrates marine education through interactive experiences where visitors learn about sea life through direct encounters with dolphins and other marine species.

The Kanazawa Seaside Line provides direct access to the island, with free entry to the general areas while specific attractions require separate admission tickets.

The Surf Coaster Leviathan roller coaster operates directly above the sea waters, providing riders with an experience that combines maritime views with mechanical thrills.
