The renovated indoor beach Seagaia – a challenge to Mother Nature

japan beach
The name Seagaia is a combination of the words “sea” and “gaia”, which means earth. The Ocean Dome is listed on the Guinness World Records as biggest world indoor water park. It opened in 1993 in Miyazaki, Japan. Unfortunately it was closed on October, 2007. Today is totally renovated as home to enormous indoor water park with white sandy beach, palm trees, water slides and a wave machine capable of surf-levels.

The new beach is huge approximately as many 6 football fields that allows everybody to lie on “the own beach”. The temperature is like the Copacabana – about 30 C° to the air and about 28 C ° to the water. But the central point on this artificial beach is the retractable roof, which on sunny days is open, on less sunny days is closed, but then the ceiling provides you with a perfect blue sky.
water sport
The Ocean Dome is only one part of the Sheraton Seagaia Resort, which offers several of hotels, World Convention Center for 5,000 participants, restaurants, tennis courts, shops, golf, board rental, zoo, and many other activities.

    Sorry but it’s wrong information. I’m from the area. They did not renovated this place. They completely closed down this dome in 2007. They could not get enough customers after a while since people went to the real beach with real palm trees and white sand which is less than 1 hour drive. Seagaia still exists but the dome was shut down completely.

    I was able to go there in 2000 and I really hoped that I would be able to go again.
    I guess the company that built the resort originally should have build it closer to an inland urban area that doesn’t have tropical beaches near it.. Say the Kansai, Kanto areas or someplace further north.

    Is the oceandome now open or closed?

    Many sites say it closed in 2007, some say it reopened in 2009 and is making profit again. I can’t find it anywhere online. To find a definitive answer.

    Anyone have any answers to this?
