Kyoto by the Sea

Maizuru Bay Sightseeing Boat

All Seasons. Departure times vary seasonally, please check website.

Visitors can take a pleasure cruise around Maizuru Bay that leaves from a small pier in Maizuru Red Brick Park. Upholding the naval legacy, the Maritime Self-Defense Force operates a base here, so in addition to historical spots like the old shipyards, you can expect to see lots of active self-defense vessels on the tour.
Cruises take approximately 35 minutes. The crew members are all former Maritime Self-Defense Force personnel and provide highly knowledgeable commentary. You’ll see giant escort vessels, minesweepers and various others depending on what is in port on the day.
