Hermit Crab Fishing Experience

I made eye contact from inside the shell! Hermit Crab Fishing Experience
At Blumen Hill's 'Shining Insect World', you can experience the cute hermit crab fishing. No hooks are used, so even small children can enjoy it safely. Even if you don't catch any, you can take one home. Wait patiently until you make eye contact from inside the shell, and enjoy hermit crab fishing.
