  • Sappa Ship Adventure
    Travel / Tourism
    Iwate Pref. Shimoheiguntanohatamura Tsukue 142-3
    An exciting boat ride offered at in Tsukue, Tanohata Village, Shimohei County. Riders board the Sappa-sen, a small shore boat once used for sea urchin fishing, to enjoy a fun cruise. One of the cruise’s greatest attractions is the small boat’s ability to enter caverns and get right up to the jagged shore of the area, something normal pleasure boats cannot mimic. The sight of the cliffs of the Kitayamazaki Coast towering 200 meters directly overhead from this small vessel is truly stunning.

Iwate Areas

around-area-map

A northern Tohoku prefecture promising peace and quiet, Iwate is sparsely populated, replacing people with snow-capped mountains, history-rich sites, and fields of crops that are to thank for the region’s delicious local cuisine. Meander along the three-city Golden Route, where you’ll visit the grand Buddhist temples of Hiraizumi and the Tono folk villages before tasting the three famed noodle dishes of Morioka.
