[Experience the Naruto whirlpools in Tokushima up close! A dynamic show created by nature]

#Spring0yenTrip The Naruto Whirlpools, one of the world's three largest tidal currents, are a spectacular spot representing Tokushima Prefecture! The moment when the huge whirlpools, created by the ebb and flow of the tides in the Naruto Strait, appear before your eyes is breathtaking. If you time it right, you can see whirlpools with a diameter of about 20 meters! There are two ways to view them. One is to board a "Whirlpool Sightseeing Boat" from the sea and see the whirlpools up close. The other is to look down directly from the sea promenade called "Uzu no Michi". The experience of watching the whirlpools from a glass floor is truly thrilling! The best time to see the whirlpools changes depending on the day, so a travel tip is to check the "Uzushio Tide Table" in advance. We especially recommend visiting an hour and a half before or after low tide or high tide! 📍Basic information (check the website for the latest information) ✴︎Address: Narutocho, Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture ✴︎Access: About 15 minutes by car from JR Naruto Station / Right next to the Kobe Awaji Naruto Expressway, Naruto Kita IC ✴︎Prices: Tide boat from 1,800 yen, Uzu no Michi 510 yen ✴︎Opening hours: Tide boat varies depending on the trip, Uzu no Michi 9:00-18:00
