Tungkol sa lokasyong ito: Shiretoko
Ang Shiretoko Peninsula, World Natural Heritage site, ay lumalawak sa Dagat ng Okhotsk. Primordial na kagubatan na may kayumangging oso at mga kuwago na manghuhuli ng isda, lumulutang na yelo sa taglamig at mga talon ng Kamuiwakka sa tag-init ay nananatiling birhen. Ang matatarik na batuhang baybay ay nakikita lamang mula sa mga bangka pang-turismo.
Mga pangunahing tampok

- Sea of Okhotsk drift ice — late January to early March, the most southerly drift-ice zone in the world; «drift-ice walks» let you stand on it
- Kamuiwakka Falls — a rare waterfall fed by hot springs; in summer, hike upstream to the fourth fall
- Cape Puyuni and Yuhi-dai — five minutes by car from Utoro; sunset over the Sea of Okhotsk silhouettes the cape
