[Kagawa] How to Enjoy the Onboard Facilities and Decks of the Shodoshima Ferry Complete Guide

When it comes to island trips in the Seto Inland Sea, the Shodoshima Ferry 🚢✨ is the perfect choice. It's a roughly one-hour cruise from Takamatsu Port to Shodoshima (Tonosho Port). The one-way fare is just 790 yen for adults and 400 yen for children, making it an excellent value! (Vehicle transportation is an additional charge.) A cruise with views of the Seto Inland Sea makes even travel time feel like part of the journey.

The ship features spacious seating, an observation deck, and a shop, so we recommend grabbing a coffee or snack and enjoying the ocean views ☕🌊. Wi-Fi is also available in some areas, so you can organize photos and plan your trip while you're on the go. Relaxing on deck while enjoying the ocean breeze is a luxurious experience you can't get on a bus or plane.

🔑 Tips

Arrive at the port as early as possible and secure a seat on the deck or by a window. On nice days, the outdoor deck is definitely recommended!

Note that vehicle transportation reservations are required during peak seasons, so be sure to check. To kick off your Shodoshima sightseeing in style, prepare to relax on board! ✨

By the way, if you take the evening cruise, you can also enjoy the night view!
