Eastward
A three-day voyage to explore abundant nature and island culture
This three-day voyage sails through the bold scenery to the east of Onomichi. En route to an anchorage off the coast of Tamano in Okayama Prefecture on the first night, guntû passes by the Mizushima Industrial Complex and beneath the impressive silhouette of the Great Seto Bridge, a marvel of modern engineering. Guests may enjoy a close-up view of inherited traditional landscapes and industry producing soy sauce, noodles, and olive oil on Shodoshima, the rich culture of the more than 100 islands of the Bisan group, and the beautiful seascapes of the Shiwaku Islands, a hub of maritime networks for centuries. As guntû navigates through these storied waters, ponder the lives and work of past generations.
