This scenic spot features an impressive red arched bridge connecting two islands in Sado's Ogi Coast. In the calm inlet, you can ride Sado's famous "Taraibune" (tub boat) and enjoy an emotional landscape reminiscent of a Studio Ghibli world. Floating gently on the transparent sea is a special experience only found here.
