Yesterday the weather is finally sunny and warm, after months of low-temperature winter and strong cold wind in Hamamatsu.

The swan boat that we rented has a capacity of 4-6 passengers. There are 4 pedals to move the boat forward and backward. It is a really fun activity, and you get to exercise your legs muscle too. Fantom Marine Kodama has many other water activities boats and cruises that you can enjoy. The price is varied according to the number of people and time. Most of the activities can be enjoyed all year long, except parasailing which only available from the end of April to mid November.   Spring is just around the corner, Hamanako lake is a must-visit place if you haven't been here.  This place is great for everyone, whether you come alone to relax, as a couple for a romantic getaway, or have fun with the family.  ...
