Hotels in Okhotsk Subprefecture, Japan
Okhotsk Subprefecture lies in northeastern Hokkaido, Japan, and is famous for its winter drift ice and fresh seafood like snow crab. The sea freezes from late January to March, with temperatures around 14°F (-10°C), when you can take ice-breaking cruises to see seals and eagles. During the mild summer (68°F/20°C), trade the ice for hikes in Shiretoko National Park or sea kayaking in the Sea of Okhotsk.
