DECKS Tokyo Beach

Oh, what a fantastic mess of crazy this place is. A bit too crowded for my liking but otherwise great! There’s food, there’s shopping, there’s even like half of floor-worth of kids area for them to play in a you’re a parent and want a minute of as breather. There’s the LEGO discovery center, an area that looks like an olden shopping street, haunted house and Madame Tussauds, which was a bit smaller than I’d like it to be but it had Becky and Beckham too, so all people worth knowing with names starting with B. :)

Good spot for taking pictures of Rainbow Bridge, 4 storeys high Gundam statue and can peek Tokyo tower. But shops are not quite enough for shopping sprees.

Great place with excellent locals to get some retro souvenirs and have a good time with family and friends. It also has locals to get anime figures at a great price. You can find a good food area in the place.

Great spot for food and some gaming. Restaurants, shops snd there is a great Retro arcade we really enjoyed, a hunted house, Legoland, wax works and a large indoor theme park/ arcade. We had other things also planned and wish we had more time, you can easily spend all day here and it rights by the beach/water front with great views. Fuji centre and observation deck are also right next door, though it was closed when we visited.

Odaiba Beach, located in the vibrant city of Tokyo, is a delightful retreat that offers a unique combination of natural beauty and urban charm. Nestled on the shores of Tokyo Bay, this man-made beach provides visitors with an exceptional escape from the bustling city streets, creating a tranquil oasis that is truly a sight to behold. One of the first things that strike you upon arriving at Odaiba Beach is its pristine sandy shorelines. The clean, white sands are meticulously maintained, inviting visitors to kick off their shoes and sink their toes into the soft, warm grains. Whether you're seeking a leisurely stroll along the water's edge or simply wish to bask in the sun, Odaiba Beach provides the perfect setting to unwind and relax. The picturesque views of Tokyo Bay are another highlight of Odaiba Beach. From the beach, you can gaze out at the expansive bay, adorned with the iconic Rainbow Bridge and impressive skyline. The contrast between the serene waters and the cityscape creates a breathtaking backdrop for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Odaiba Beach also offers a host of recreational activities for visitors to enjoy. Whether you're a water sports enthusiast or simply looking for some family-friendly fun, there is something for everyone. Kayaking, paddleboarding, and even beach volleyball are among the popular activities that can be experienced here. The beach's well-maintained facilities, including showers and restrooms, ensure a comfortable and convenient experience for all visitors. Additionally, Odaiba Beach is surrounded by an array of entertainment options and attractions. Nearby, you'll find shopping centers, theme parks, and fascinating museums, such as the famous Odaiba Palette Town and the interactive teamLab Borderless exhibit. After a relaxing day at the beach, you can easily explore these captivating destinations to make the most of your visit. One of the key advantages of Odaiba Beach is its accessibility. It can be easily reached via various transportation options, including the Yurikamome Line or even a short ferry ride. Its proximity to the city center makes it an ideal destination for both locals and tourists seeking a quick escape from the urban chaos.

Massive shopping centre with lots of restaurants. And fantastic view at Tokyo harbour’s

Lovely place for family outing... lot of play area for all age group kids, one of biggest daiso and nishimatsuyu stores. And ofcourse the beach is lovely

It's a bit away from Tokyo central but it's lively generally. It has many shops ranging from small independent shops to huge American brands. Not too fun nor are there great views... but it's interesting to see. Do some shopping. If you're into the knockoff statue of liberty or a bus ride then give it a look.

A real eccentric collection of retail here! We primarily came here for animal cafe called Animeal -- which we immensely enjoyed the dogs, cats, capybara, and assorted collection of furry friends. I couldn't really categorize this mall to be high end or low end but there is so much activity here! Shop for shoes? Yes. Go game? Yes. Go back in time on the 4th floor? Hell, yes! The 4th floor has a retro arcade and other interesting places to visit like a trick eye museum and haunted house (?) and eventually, the Takoyaki Museum which is basically a collection of takoyaki stalls. Other floors have restaurants and retail. If you are in the area, swing by!

We came here before on our last trip to Japan and since it was only a few stops down from the Toyosu area, we got off to walk around. This is a very eclectic mall and if you come during the day, the view of the harbor, bridges, and surrounding areas are awesome. The mall itself has a huge variety of stores, restaurants, and activities for the family. We found it a little hard to navigate the 1st floor exterior where the eateries are, but we managed. If it is your first time, make sure that you allot a little space into your schedule so you don't have to rush.

This is one of the main shopping centers in Odaiba. They offer amusement parks, shopping restaurants, and of course the Takoyaki Museum! It's basically a shopping street with lots of cartoon octopus's looking at you with the strange eye! I like this shopping center as it's not something you'll see in the states and has a lot of heart and soul. Most of the locations in this mall are not free, but a lot still is. I wouldn't say this is the best location to shop in Odaiba, but it sure makes for a weird experience. Give it a shot, even if you don't spend a lot of time here.

Tourist trap. This is not the place to come for anything other than charging your phone or camera battery pack when you need it. Most of the people here do know some English, but you are surrounded by foreigners or business men who work in the area. The prices are higher than the usual, and on top of that you don't want to buy these items created just for tourists. If you want cheesy t shirts with English words saying ODAIBA or something along the lines of fake Japanese imitations, here is the place to be. This is just the impression I get. You can come see it for yourselves, perhaps I am missing something...

I loved the Decks. It's two shopping buildings connected together in Odaiba with spacious wooden decks overlooking the water. They have an indoor amusement park complete with rides (wish we had time to check it out), Legoland (only for kids and their parents/chaperones), Madame Tussauds wax museum (we skipped), and my favorite, the Tokyo Trick Art Museum filled with interactive optical illusions. The Decks also has many fun shops to browse through for traditional Japanese souvenirs. I bought my coin purse here and it's proven very handy throughout my Japan and Hong Kong trip!

This is one of the three major shopping complexes in Odaiba. Things of note are the Legoland Center, Joypolis, and the takoyaki museum. The Legoland Center, Joypolis (gaming center), and another museum here aren't free though. In addition, the takoyaki museum isn't a museum, but a place where there are lots of octopus ball vendors.

Decks is another one of the shopping complexes that lines the Odaiba Water Front and has many stores, restaurants and theme parks. It houses, Joypolis (renovated in 2012) Legoland, Madam Tussauds and a trick art museum. I think you can spend a full day in Odaiba and not get bored. Decks and Aqua City are the malls that I end up shopping most at, but Decks is most fun because it has the delicious and famous Bills, and the best entertainment/amusement complex of Joypolis. It's a great place to come with friends, make it a date night, or even come with the family. Kids (from every age) can have fun at Lego Land to Joypolis. Definitely plan to spend a few hours at this mall!

Better than Venus. Worse than DiverSity. At least they have the biggest (and cheapest?) Daiso.
