Miyajima Sea Kayak Tour
If you wish to experience sea kayaking in Miyajima, we recommend Kayak Space Paddle Park in the town of Monomihigashi in Hatsukaichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture, or the Kurushima Watertrail in Nakadera, Imabari City in Ehime Prefecture. You can get close to Itsukushima Shrine, a World Heritage site, and paddle around the former haunts of the Murakami Pirates, who roamed the Seto Inland Sea in medieval Japan.
The “Miyajima Sea Kayak Tour” visits the world heritage, the Itsukushima Shrine
The tours of Kurushima Watertrail visit Kojoujima island, whichi is said to be the oldest pirate castle in Japan, and Kajitorinohana where there are remains of a castle. The tour also takes people around the sea areas that were once controlled by Kurushima Murakami, one of the three families of the Murakami Pirates. While they are not special tours that introduce the Murakami Pirates, it provides the unique opportunity to closely visit the seas once ruled by pirates. *1
*1 Tour courses may change depending on the condition of the sea and weather.
