Lunch on Raft-Style Boat HANAIKADA on the west coast of Miyajima

2 hours 20 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: Japanese

[Weekday Exclusive]
Visit the western coast of Miyajima, a sacred island where the gods reside. Embark on a lunch cruise aboard the unique raft-style lounge ship, HANAIKADA, the only one of its kind in Japan, offering a 90-minute seafront dining experience in the untouched natural beauty off Miyahama Onsen. Create unforgettable memories with loved ones before or after staying at Miyahama Onsen or exploring Miyajima.

Launched in 2020, HANAIKADA is a one-of-a-kind ship, resembling a raft that floats in the waters off Miyajima. With a concept of a raft-like structure close to the sea surface, it features a glass-encased building and terrace area, creating a space for 12 passengers surrounded by the serene atmosphere typical of the Seto Inland Sea.

Sailing through the Ono Seto on this ship allows you to harmonize with the Seto Inland Sea, step onto the terrace, and enjoy the slowly passing time, forgetting the hustle and bustle of daily life.

    11:30 Arrive at the port 11:45 Lunch cruise starts 13:30 Return to the port While the eastern side of Miyajima, with Itsukushima-jinja Shrine, is considered the cultural zone, the western side, the location for this plan, is the natural zone, where ancient untouched nature remains. Observing the unspoiled west coast gives a sense of why Miyajima has been referred to as a place where "gods reside." This is likely the same scenery that Kukai (Kobo Daishi), Monk of the Heian Period(794-1180), and Oda Nobunaga once admired on Miyajima. Moreover, the cruise includes a sea visit to one of the Nanaura-jinja Shrines (Seven Shrines), the Mitoko-jinja Shrine. It is considered a sacred place where a deity was temporarily enshrined during the construction of Itsukushima-jinja Shrine. Enjoy the charm of Miyajima different from the bustling tourist spots. The approximately 90-minute cruise is accompanied by a lunch, creating a vibrant time with the combination of the sea's location and cuisine.
