Looking for a breezy seaside escape in the city? Kobe’s coastal area near Maiko and Suma offers the perfect blend of stunning ocean views, open-air strolls, and peaceful moments.
🌉 Maiko Marine Promenade
Walk above the sea along this thrilling glass-floored walkway built beneath the Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge. On clear days, the view is simply unforgettable.
🌿 Circular Walking Paths
Explore the gently curved walkways that wind along the coast. You’ll find great photo spots and cozy benches to take a break with the sea breeze.
🌁 Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge
One of the world’s longest suspension bridges—an engineering marvel and a Kobe icon!
🏖️ Suma Seaside Park
A peaceful beachside park where you can dip your toes in the sand, enjoy a picnic, or just watch the waves roll in.
Why I recommend this area:
・It’s perfect for slow travel with calming views and wide-open space
・You can enjoy both nature and iconic architecture in one walkable route
📍Maiko & Suma area, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture
