Cross the Harbor on the Famous Ferry Boat Connecting East and West Uraga
About this spot
A small ferry boat that connects east and west Uraga in just minutes, still actively serving as a vital transportation link for local residents. It takes far less time to cross by ferry than making a long detour by bus or on foot. The harbor view from the boat is filled with the authentic charm of a port town, with fishing boats and moored vessels passing by. For children, this short boat journey becomes a truly special experience.

荒天時は中止となる場合があるため、当日は横須賀市の公式発表で確認を。会場周辺の道は狭いため、徒歩や公共交通機関でのアクセスがおすすめです。終了後は駅までの道が混み合うため、しばらく余韻を楽しんでからの帰宅がスムーズです。
