Kujukushima Cruising Boat Pearl Queen

Cruise through the Kujukushima island chain near Sasebo aboard the Pearl Queen, a large white-hulled ship, or the Pirate Boat Mirai with its child-friendly exterior. The 99-island archipelago is best appreciated from the water, where the density of forested islets and shifting sea channels becomes clear. During Golden Week and summer vacation periods, trips include a stop at a nearby uninhabited island where visitors can observe shoreline wildlife or feed fish. Sea kayaking and yachting are available for those who want a more active way into the islands.
