For sightseeing around Matsushima Bay, one of Three Most Scenic Views of Japan, visitors can either take a round-trip cruise from Matsushima or a one-way cruise between Matsushima and Shiogama, starting at either point. Both courses allow you to see the famous scenic islands in Matsushima Bay.
The Matsushima Bay Storyteller Cruise, led by a storyteller guide, gives visitors a chance to hear stories about the Great East Japan Earthquake based on personal experience. The storytelling imparts the importance of being grateful for life and family and the significance of maintaining a sense of awe towards nature.
The cruise is available for school trips, corporate training, and other groups with advance reservations.
