Overview

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Matsushima Bay, celebrated as one of Japan’s Three Most Scenic Views. Your journey begins with a comfortable Shinkansen ride from Tokyo, whisking you directly to the heart of Miyagi. Once there, you’ll stroll across elegant vermilion bridges to visit the bay’s enchanting islands—Godaidō, Oshima, and Fukuura—each rich with history, temples, and panoramic vistas. For those who wish, a local bay cruise (operated by our trusted partners) can be joined to admire the 260 pine-clad islets from the water. Back on shore, immerse yourself in the lively seafood market, savoring freshly caught delicacies, before ending the day in Sendai’s vibrant nightlife district with a tabehodai & nomihodai izakaya feast. Then relax as the Shinkansen brings you back to Tokyo, completing a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural discovery, and culinary indulgence.

A bout tour of Matsushima bay is available, offered by 3rd party on location. Fee not included in this tour.
