The abundant spring qualities and spa facilities offer supreme relaxation to visitors. Family-friendly attractions like Noboribetsu Marine Park Nixe and the Noboribetsu Bear Park add to the fun. Local specialties include hot spring eggs, fresh seafood, and souvenirs sold in the hot spring town. Noboribetsu’s rich natural environment allows visitors to enjoy the beauty of all four seasons, and skiing is popular in winter.
