Board a coach for the drive to the Kagoshima ferry terminal. From here, it's a 15-minute ferry ride to Sakurajima Island. From an observation point, you will view Mt Sakurajima — an active volcano that rises magnificently above Kinko Bay. Mt Sakurajima faces Kagoshima. It constantly emits smoke, sometimes to a height of several thousand feet. This symbol of Kagoshima is the site of repeated eruptions throughout history.
Take the ferry back to Kagoshima, where you will visit Sengan-en Garden. This is a fine specimen of Japanese landscape gardening, with Sakurajima and Kinko Bay harmoniously forming its beautiful backdrop.
Notes:
Sakurajima is an active volcano; participate at your own risk. Wear comfortable walking shoes. The view of Mt Sakurajima is weather-dependent. Tour sequence may vary. Unfamiliar accents can be challenging; feel free to ask your guide to repeat or elaborate on information, and to speak more slowly so you can fully comprehend and converse.
