Kick off your private shore excursion at Matsue Castle Town, one of Japan’s 12 remaining original castle keeps and a rare National Treasure. Delve into the historic fortress and soak up panoramic views over Matsue from the pinnacle of the keep.

Next, meander through Matsue’s ancient castle town, where time-honoured streets and structures maintain the aura of the erstwhile samurai city. Then, make your way back towards Sakaiminato, stopping by Mizuki Shigeru Road. This roughly 800-meter stretch is peppered with characters and bronze statues, all inspired by the creations of renowned manga artist Shigeru Mizuki. Take your time to explore quirky shops, pick up local mementos, and delve into the fascinating realm of Japanese yokai culture.

If there's still time on the clock, why not pop into Sakaiminato Fish Centre? Here, you can peruse fresh seafood and local products before heading back to Sakaiminato Cruise Terminal.
