Take Home A Piece Of Takeno

Create your very own Takeno Beach by creating a gel candle using sand, sea glass, and shells!
The sea glass and shells used to make your own candle are found right here on the shores of Takeno!

This is a great activity for all ages, and comes with an explanation in English.

Create Your Own Unique Design

Begin by searching Takeno Beach for your own shells!
After returning from the beach, start filling the bottom of your candle jar with sand, and then begin placing your favorite shells and other decorations on top.
Once your design is finished, staff will fill the rest of your candle jar with warm gel!

After 15 to 20 minutes, the gel will be hardened and your candle will be ready to take home!
