It's also a perfect place to take children who love boats.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In this issue, we would like to introduce the \"Navy-related Harbor Tour Boat,\" its features and attractions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The \"Navy Harbor Tour Boat\" is a sightseeing tour that cruises around Maizuru Bay on a sightseeing boat to feel the sea breeze.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
You can cruise slowly from Maizuru East Port, and since the port is associated with the former navy, you can have a grand experience of seeing destroyers, shipyards, and the Maritime Self-Defense Force pier up close from the sea.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The following is an introduction to the attractions and features of the \"Navy Harbor Tour Boat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Maizuru Akarenga Park is a famous tourist attraction in Maizuru.
Here you will find the Red Brick Museum, cafes, souvenir shops, and many other stores.
The sightseeing boats depart from the Maizuru Akarenga Park here.
Tickets can be purchased at the Akarenga Park No. 2 (Municipal Administration Memorial Hall) boarding ticket sales office.
If you have time before cruising, relax at the nearby Red Brick Museum or cafes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
You can board the boat 15 minutes before.
When you arrive at the Hokusui Akarenga Pier (next to the Akarenga Museum), the sea breeze will already be pleasant.
The ship is neatly decorated in red color and can be moved to the deck.
The boat offers a 30-minute cruise in a counterclockwise direction.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
When ships are seconded, many MSDF vessels can be seen.
Many vessels appeared, including oil ships for refueling, wooden ships made of wood to avoid metal-detecting mines, and destroyers.
Other vessels that can be seen include Aegis and other destroyers, supply ships, transports, missile boats, and minesweepers.
Cruising brings you up close and personal, so it's a great experience.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cruising offers a detailed introduction by a guide and a chance to become familiar with the ship.
Seeing the ships, hearing the stories, feeling the sea breeze...so many attractions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Let's take a look at some of the reviews of the \"Navy Harbor Tour Boat.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cruising around the Maritime Self-Defense Force is a great way to get to know it. It takes about 30 minutes to go slowly around Maizuru Bay in a counterclockwise direction, but it went by very quickly.
I had a wonderful time in a very short 30 minutes. There were explanations of the types of boats and I gained fresh knowledge.
The 30-minute talk is also very informative. It is a must for children who love boats.
We were able to see convoys and supply ships from the sea. It was a valuable and very good experience.
We were able to see not only the destroyers, but also the Maizuru Crane Bridge, large tankers, and a huge dock. The sea breeze was pleasant.
We were able to take our time and get up close and personal with the Self-Defense Forces' destroyers and shipyard. The JMSDF destroyers were very powerful and impressive.
...A very well guided cruise...lasted about 30 minutes but was very productive. You can see the ship up close.
It is wonderful just to be able to cruise on the ocean...you can even see a destroyer! It is spectacular and recommended for families and couples.
I was happy to see the Aegis and other vessels up close. I was happy when the Self-Defense Forces personnel waved their hands to me.
It was a comfortable and caring place to spend time. Cruising at sunset was fantastic....<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
