Kaiyo: World's First DMV and Takeshima Coral Reef Cruise - A Day of Vehicle Adventures

Enjoy a full day of vehicle adventures in Kaiyo, Tokushima Prefecture, where the world's first DMV (Dual Mode Vehicle) that can run on both roads and rails operates. Begin your morning with a walk on the white sand beach at Ōsago, selected as one of Japan's 100 Best Beaches. Board the DMV at Awa Kainan Cultural Village and be amazed as the bus transforms into a train in just 15 seconds. Then run along the tracks while enjoying views of the Pacific Ocean until you reach Michi no Eki Shishikui Onsen rest area, where you can enjoy fresh seafood lunch and shop at the direct market. In the afternoon, head to Takeshima at the southernmost tip of Tokushima Prefecture, preview the coral sea at Marine Jam museum, and finish with an observation from the Blue Marin submarine's underwater viewing room, where you can observe colorful fish and coral reefs. Run on land, run on rails, and peer beneath the sea—a special day designed for vehicle lovers.
