Trips by Japanese Fishing Boat

Sensui Island 1/2 day

Just a 45-minute motorboat ride away, Sensui Island offers a traditional Japanese bath in an onsen. Choose from two different onsens, indoor spring water or outdoor dry onsen. Three hours on Sensui Island for onsen and lunch, or take a 3-minute ferry ride to the mainland for a stroll through historic Tomo no Ura. 6,000 yen per person. Lunch/onsen extra. Min. 4 people.
 
Tomon no Ura is also a good drop-off point for those headed West to Hiroshima or beyond. Let us know if you'd like a one-way fare.

Two-Day Island Explorer Trips

We will be running several two-day trips, including all meals and one night accommodation. All trips start from Shiraishi and can go either West (Omishima-Yuge--Miyajima) or East (Mannabe--Naoshima--Teshima--Shodoshima), also stopping at any of the islands in between. These are really fantastic trips, offering an opportunity to see spots that most tourists never get to see. Each island has a unique culture and people.
 
Email for details and prices and let us know what you'd like to see.

Service to your Next Destination

We can also provide transportation to your next destination, should you be headed to Miyajima, Kompira-san, or any other place along the Inland Sea. Save time--a motor boat will get you there much faster than regular transportation as it is direct and you won't have to lug your suitcases from ferry to train nor navigate the transportation system. See suggested itineraries under "Other Islands."

Service to Shikoku

If you're headed to Shikoku from Shiraishi Island, we can get you there in about an hour. This is the fastest and most direct route to Shikoku from here. Otherwise, take the ferry back to Kasaoka then take the train to Okayama and transfer to the train to Shikoku, a 3-hour trip plus waiting time between connections. 
 
One way trip by motorboat is 5,000 yen per person, minimum 4 people. You may want to make a stop at Awashima on the way. See "Other Islands" for information on Awashima.

One-Day Tours

We also offer 1-day historic tours of the Seto Naikai. Read about "Sea battles, daimyo and pirates" tour:
