The origin of the name is that when the general public was invited, it became "Umihotaru" because it was "light floating on the sea", and it was decided to use the creature with the same name as a character. Today, the artificial island itself is sometimes called "Umihotaru" instead of the name of the parking area.
The name of the town on the artificial island of Kisarazu is 'Umihotaru Nakajima, Kisarazu City, Chiba Prefecture'. Kisarazu artificial island was made for the purpose of connecting the Tokyo Bay Aqua Tunnel from Kawasaki and the bridge part from Kisarazu. It is the second artificial island along with the Kawasaki Artificial Island (Wind Tower) on the Aqua Line.
