Kyoto Day Trip: Amanohashidate, Ine Funaya & Ine Bay Cruise

Escape the city and discover two of Kyoto Prefecture's most spectacular coastal destinations on this unforgettable day trip. Visit Amanohashidate, celebrated as one of Japan's Three Scenic Views, where a pine-covered sandbar stretches across brilliant blue waters. Ride to Amanohashidate Viewland (optional) for breathtaking panoramic views, stroll along the beach, cross Kaisen Bridge, and visit the historic Chion-ji Temple, creating the perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage. Continue to the peaceful fishing village of Ine, often called "Japan's Venice" for its unique Funaya boat houses built directly along the waterfront. Explore Funayanosato Park, enjoy spectacular views over the bay, and experience the charm of one of Japan's best-preserved coastal communities. An optional Ine Bay sightseeing cruise offers the chance to admire the traditional boat houses from the water and feed the famous seagulls along the way.
