Paddle the calm bay beside the World Heritage pine grove, Mt. Fuji rising straight ahead — two World Heritage views from the water.

The Miho peninsula shelters a calm, glassy bay — one of the few places in Japan where you paddle with two World Heritage sites in one frame: the Miho pine grove on one side, Mt. Fuji across the water. Local instructors run stand-up paddleboard sessions gentle enough for first-timers.
Be back on board at least 60 minutes before departure. Every itinerary on this site is designed around your all-aboard time, not around opening hours.
Mt. Fuji is clearly visible roughly 3–4 days out of 10, best in early morning. Check the official live camera before you commit to a view-based plan — and see our Plan B.
Arrival berths and times are published by the Shimizu Port Passenger Ship Committee. Note: if your ship docks at Okitsu Pier, walking out is not permitted — plan transport ahead.
