Ozora, Administrative town in Okhotsk Subprefecture, Hokkaido, Japan

Located at the gateway to Shiretoko Heritage site, Ozora spans 343 square kilometers across eastern Hokkaido with a population of 7,430 residents.

The establishment of Ozora occurred on March 31, 2006, through the consolidation of Memanbetsu town and Higashimokoto village, both former parts of Abashiri.

The name Ozora translates to Large Sky in Japanese, reflecting the expansive horizons and natural landscapes of this northern territory.

Memanbetsu Airport provides regular domestic flights from Narita, Haneda, and Kansai airports, while the Sekihoku Main Line serves two railway stations.

The town introduced Soralucky, an anthropomorphic jet airliner mascot in 2007, symbolizing the strong connection between Ozora and aviation.
