Tour Kitagi Island and Shishi Island on a private charter boat

This plan includes a tour of Shishijima, whose symbol is a sacred tree said to be about 1,200 years old, and Kitagishima, which has been designated a Japanese Heritage site as an island of stone.

Because it is a private boat, you can enjoy even hard-to-reach islands to your heart’s content without having to worry about connecting with regular boats.

On Shishijima, you can enjoy hiking in the great outdoors and head to the large camphor tree, which has been designated a natural monument.
The view from the observation deck at the top, which was handcrafted by the islanders, is a must-see.

On Kitagi Island, you can dine on oyster dishes while touring the oyster rafts where the delicious, high-quality “Kitaki Oysters” are cultivated. These oysters are grown in the clean waters and rich plankton of Kitagi Island.
The lunch you can savor while watching the oyster cultivation process right before your eyes is exceptional.

Enjoy the charm of the small islands of the Seto Inland Sea, filled with beautiful nature and a rich food culture.
