Cross the world's narrowest strait and receive a Guinness crossing certificate
About this spot
A strait separating Honcho and Fuchisaki districts in Tonosho Town, only 9.93 meters wide at its narrowest point. Recognized by Guinness World Records in 1996 as "the world's narrowest strait," it's a unique spot distinctive to Shodoshima. The Tonosho Town Office issues crossing certificates for a fee, which is worth keeping as a souvenir. Looking down from the bridge, children will be amazed at how narrow the waterway actually is.
