This new central route offers an experience of the history and nature of both western and eastern Setouchi, stretching between Omishima in Ehime in the west to the Shiwaku Islands in the east.
After departing from Bella Vista Marina, sail between the islands of the Shimanami Kaido and drop anchor alongside Omishima.
The next morning, go ashore to wander around Kurushima, an island surrounded by the rapid currents of the Kurushima Strait.
In the afternoon go east to Mitoyo, Kagawa to enjoy the spectacular scenery of Setouchi, such as the 352-meter meter Mt. Shiude, which rises from a peninsula surrounded by the sea, or Chichibugahama, where the water reflects the sky like a mirror.
On the third day, pass through the Shiwaku Islands to the northwest on the way back to Bella Vista Marina.
