An indoor ocean

Imagine designing the perfect beach - blue skies, never too hot or too cold, no rain, water is pure and the surf is perfect. Well there is such a place. The Sheraton Seagaia Resort in Miyazaki, Japan. They have built an ocean dome only 300 meters away from the natural beach.

It boasts a flame-spitting volcano that erupts every hour, causing the hi-tech wave machines to start up for that perfect surf. White marble sand was brought in for beach lounging.

Temperature, wind and humidity are constantly controlled to provide the perfect atmosphere. What a great design. For pictures visit.
