A week through the Seto Inland Sea, the serene heart of Japan, scattered with hundreds of pine-clad islands between Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu. This is a cultural voyage of rare depth, floating shrines and world-class art islands, temple towns and sub-tropical reefs. Expect the great torii of Miyajima and the museums of Naoshima, traditional fishing villages and the beaches of Okinawa, a route unlike any other.
Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter anchorage. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
