About This Tour
Sakurajima, an active volcano still emitting smoke, is situated about 10 kilometers across the sea from Kagoshima's city center. Originally an island, Sakurajima became connected to the Kyushu mainland following an eruption approximately 110 years ago. Why not experience the pulse of the earth with a sea kayaking adventure here? Embark on a magnificent journey from sea level across the vast lava fields and gaze up at the grandeur of Sakurajima. Viewing Sakurajima from the water's surface offers a powerful and unique perspective, revealing the mountain's might and the expansive lava terrain in a way you've never seen before. Peering into the sea, you'll discover volcanic wonders extending underwater - lava flows that have reached the ocean, corals coexisting with the volcano, and even hot springs emerging from the seabed. Each element contributes to the unique underwater volcanic landscape. Join us on this grand adventure tour to explore these unique vistas only found in Sakurajima!
