Even where will "Ishinaga Taumi Kishi" who can get off during "Odake observatory" and the mangrove forest over which "sugar load" and the superb view where I hold my breath which develop straight spread and observe a mangrove imminently introduce 6 superb view spots which can be seen only here Kohamajima?

Observatory in Manta is a quiet park of a mark in the location of about 10 minutes by car from Obama harbor. A well-kept green lawn is spread in a front page, and a leaf of a palm can look an emerald green sea around from a park, and can enjoy the feeling of tropics which shakes in a wind.
They're the bench loosed freely and POINT it's few, but there is also playground equipment, and which is wonderful in with children in the park. It's open, so a leisure seat, it's opened, and, it's also most suitable for a picnic and play with a ball.

The visit by bicycle is quite hard because Ama park is in the location where an island was crossed from a harbor. The parking space where a car can be parked has been also reserved tightly around the entrance of the park, so I'll recommend you movement by rent-a-car.
