Inujima Island-Inujima Ticket Center and Lunch-

2022-10-18

Good morning, everyone. I’m Cho.

 

This time, I went to “Inujima Island”, an artistic island in Okayama. It’s an island full of art and about 3 km from Hoden Port in Okayama City. It takes about 10 minutes from Hoden Port to the island by passenger boat. The circumference is about 4 km, it’s a very small island because you can walk around it for about an hour. I’d recommend this island to those who like the sea and are interested in art!!!

Light meals and sweets. You can enjoy them while you wait for a passenger boat. Looking at the sea, you can also eat Taimeshi (rice with sea bream from Seto Inland Sea).
