So let's set sail on a sightseeing cruise among these islands - get ready to immerse yourself into a world of blue waters, jagged cliffs and breathtaking landscapes.

After your sailing trip, it's time to recharge your batteries with a delicious lunch in a local restaurant. Savor the authentic flavors of the region before setting off to discover the next marvel. We will make our way to Mount Yumihari, with stunning views over the bay of Kujukushima - in a word, epic!

Then, we're ready for the grand finale! our last stop will be at Saikai Bridge, the perfect place from which to observe the famous tidal whirlpools. As the water moves, it creates spirals and waves that look like they're dancing before your very eyes!
