The much talked about Ago Bay Sunset Cruise, which was also attended by transport ministers from various countries at the G7 Mie/Ise-Shima Transport Ministers' Meeting (June 2023), will begin operating on Saturday, October 1, 2026.
The view of Ago Bay at dusk from the Esperanza, a ship operated by Kashikojima Espana Cruises, which is based on the carrack ship of the Spanish Age of Discovery, is romantic and fantastical.
It's the perfect time to create special memories.
Enjoy a memorable and luxurious time aboard the special ship "Esperanza," the same vessel that carried the leaders of each country at the G7 summit, while taking in the beautiful scenery of Ago Bay.
Also, you can enjoy the starry sky on the same day."Ago Bay Starry Night Cruise"will also be held.
