　Setouchi border cruise

On this relaxed cruise, you can see the islands of three prefectures from the sea.

Tsuwajijima Island borders Ehime, Yamaguchi and Hiroshima Prefectures. Cruise the Seto Inland Sea guided by the master of Kamekawa Ryokan, a venerable institution from the Taisho Period. Depending on the season, you can also feed cultured flounder (please enquire).

Things to see

It's well worth viewing the islands of three prefectures from the Tsuwajijima Island. The currents here are fast, so you can also experience riding the rapid currents. If you're lucky, you may also be able to see a submarine.

　Shiro no Hana

A spot where tidal currents flow between islands

If you go west from Konoura along the long coastline, you come to Konoura. The part of the Uwama that juts out in a peninsula is called Shiro no Hana. A narrow road like a lane goes around the coastline, and the sea that can be seen from here is Nakajima's only spot with a fast current.

Things to see

The current that flows in the gap between the islands moves as fast as a river, and it sometimes forms whirlpools. Also from the perfect sunset viewing spot on the west coast, you can see faraway islands as the sun dyes the Seto Inland Sea orange.

Location

From Hidekobo return to the prefectural road and turn right. After about 30 minutes, the road divides into two. Take the left fork and follow the sea until you come to the Shiro no Hana coast road.
