The Seto Inland Sea (known in Japanese as Setonaikai) is Japan's largest inland body of water, separating the main islands of Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu. Spanning roughly 400 kilometers from Osaka to Kitakyushu, it encompasses approximately 3,000 islands. Because of its calm waters, warm climate, and low rainfall, the region is frequently referred to as "Japan's Mediterranean Sea".
Senzaki is a scenic port town in Japan, famous for its fishing, delicious squid, and ties to the famous poet Kaneko Misuzu. It is located in the city of Nagato in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Tottori is a coastal destination in southwestern Japan known as the country's least populated prefecture, famous for its massive coastal sand dunes, dramatic mountain peaks, and deep roots in pop culture. Located along the Sea of Japan coast in the Chūgoku region, Tottori offers an unspoiled, crowd-free alternative to major tourist hubs like Tokyo and Kyoto.
Nanao is the largest city on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. Located approximately 65 kilometers north of Kanazawa, it is a historic port town renowned for its coastal scenery, traditional hot spring resorts, and vibrant cultural heritage. The name "Nanao" (七尾) translates to "Seven Tails," referring to the seven mountain ridges that embrace the city.
Kuji is a scenic coastal city located in the northeastern corner of Iwate Prefecture, Japan, along the Pacific Ocean. Boasting a population of roughly 34,000 residents, it is celebrated for its rich maritime traditions, unique geology, and its prominent feature as the setting for the popular NHK morning drama series Amachan.
Ōarai is a scenic coastal town located in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, roughly two hours north of Tokyo. Situated along the Pacific Ocean, it is widely celebrated for its striking ocean views, fresh seafood delicacies, and distinct pop-culture significance.
Yokohama, Japan's second-largest city, seamlessly blends historical charm with modern innovation. Once a modest fishing village, it has transformed into a vibrant cosmopolitan hub, offering visitors a rich tapestry of cultural experiences, waterfront attractions, and culinary delights.
The name "MITSUI OCEAN SAKURA" honors the cherry blossom, a flower deeply cherished in Japan for its timeless beauty. With an overall length of under 200 meters, MITSUI OCEAN SAKURA’s agile hull allows her to access small harbors, remote islands, and sheltered bays, reaching every corner of Japan. Approaching beautiful coastlines, historic port towns, and unspoiled natural retreats from the sea is a special experience unique to Mitsui’s style of cruising.
