Walking on the sea!? Maritime walk on SUP to view Shodoshima from the sea.
海の上を歩いてる!? SUPで小豆島を海から眺める海上散歩
Stand up paddleboard (SUP) cruising can be experienced at “Shimaasobi,” based in Kobe on the north side of Shodoshima Island.
With few buildings blocking the view, Shodoshima is close to the mountains and the sea, and the rocky coastline unique to the northern part of the island offers a powerful view.
You can enjoy cruising on a SUP, which combined with the scenery makes you feel as if you are walking on the sea.
【Educational Effects】
Through playing with all their might in nature, especially in the ocean, visitors can experience the beauty of nature and learn the significance of protecting and preserving it.
We also hope that people will become fans of Shodoshima from this experience, and that they will want to come back and live there someday.
【Programme Outline】
■Lecture on how to ride and paddle, and warm-up (15 minutes)
A Japan Stand Up Paddleboard Association (SUPA) certified instructor will give an explanation on land.
■Cruising (70 minutes)
START (beach) → uninhabited island → quarry → suspension bridge → GOAL (Beach)
■Commemorative photo (5 minutes)

Recommendations
The water on Shodoshima is crystal clear, and there is much to see, including circling uninhabited islands, passing under suspension bridges, and admiring the powerful rock formations. You can listen to a local instructor talk about the history of Shodoshima and its attractions while at sea.
Trash is mainly plastic trash used in oyster farming, driftwood, and sea glass. Oyster farming is thriving in the Seto Inland Sea, so we hope to have fun solving problems unique to the Seto Inland Sea through play. (Contact: Okawa)
