See impressive warships on a 45-minute cruise with live commentary from expert guides
About this spot
A unique approximately 45-minute cruise where you can see US Navy and Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force vessels up close from the sea—the only place in Japan to experience this. The guides' live commentary is full of humor, and the ship buzzes with excitement each time an aircraft carrier or submarine appears. The vessels anchored differ each day, so discovering which ships you'll encounter is part of the adventure.
Tips
Weekends fill up quickly, so advance booking on the official website is recommended. Deck seating is quite windy, so secure your child's hat.
