Ago Bay, a pearl producing area known for its beautiful sunsets
Ago Bay in Shima City, Mie Prefecture, is one of Japan's leading ria coastlines. Located in the southern part of the Shima Peninsula, 60 islands of various sizes float within the bay, creating a complex coastline with beautiful scenery. The sunset time is particularly famous for its spectacular views, and the bay has been selected as one of the "100 Best Sunsets in Japan."
"Ago Bay Cruise" - See the magnificent scenery from the sea
If you board a sightseeing boat from Kashikojima Port, you can view Ago Bay from the sea. We recommend the approximately 50-minute "Kashikojima Espana Cruise." The sailing boat "Esperanza" used on the Kashikojima Espana Cruise is modeled after a carrack ship from the Spanish Age of Discovery. You can enjoy the magnificent view from the observation deck.
Enjoy a sunset on the sea that you normally can't see on the limited-time "Ago Bay Sunset Cruise"
Normally, the ship closes when the sun sets, but for a limited time, the ship will operate the "Ago Bay Sunset Cruise," which allows you to enjoy sunset time on the sea. This cruise is highly recommended, as you can enjoy a romantic moment as the colors of the sea and sky change as time passes. The special rooms, which are usually available for a fee, can be used free of charge by applying on the day (first come, first served).
