📝 Introduction

Powerful sea tides, history, and shipbuilding! A sightseeing boat filled with attractions everywhere.

📖 Details

The "Shimanami Kaido" connects Onomichi City in Hiroshima Prefecture on Honshu with Imabari City in Ehime Prefecture on Shikoku. This road stretches between the islands of the Seto Inland Sea, with the southernmost island named Oshima. The Kurushima Strait between this Oshima and Shikoku is widely known for being one of Japan's three major tidal currents. The rapid currents and complex topography create the famous "whirlpools" of the Kurushima Strait. This time, let's board the "Kurushima Strait Rapid Current Viewing Boat" to witness the magnificent spectacle of the tidal currents!

⭐ Highlights

The Narushima Strait Bridge, viewed from the sea, is truly spectacular. Sometimes, you can even see ships struggling against the intense currents that are impossible to approach. If you want to witness the stunning currents, the best times are during the full moon and new moon. There is also a brochure available in foreign languages.
