【Details】 The Shimanami Kaido, known as a "cyclist's paradise," attracts visitors from all over the world. We've created a "best of" course that captures the hottest parts of this popular route, making it enjoyable even for those who don't usually cycle. Starting from Setoda Port, a 40-minute boat ride from Onomichi Port, this one-way cycling tour takes you to Oyamazumi Shrine on Omishima Island and a scenic spot overlooking the original landscape of the Seto Inland Sea. After reaching the finish line, fold your Brompton and enjoy a car ride to your accommodation, feeling a sense of accomplishment. However, the real thrill lies in experiencing the stories of the islands along the Shimanami Kaido, stories you can't learn just by driving through. From islands once called the "Islands of the Gods" to port towns that flourished during the Edo period, and national-level bridge construction projects, we'll share the unique character of Shimanami through these numerous tales.
