Japan Ferries

Japan, consisting of several thousand islands, is naturally home to an extensive network of domestic ferry routes.

While Japan's four major islands, Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku, are connected with each other by bridges and tunnels, most smaller islands can only be reached by ferry ship. But even between the major four islands, ferries can be an interesting, if not particularly fast alternative to trains, buses and airplanes.

Domestic ferries transport people, vehicles and cargo. While the shorter routes are served by small ships, able to carry a couple of cars and a few dozens of passengers, large ferry liners are employed on longer routes.

There are also several passenger, car and freight cruise ferry routes between Japan and Russia, Korea, China & Taiwan.

Larger ferries can carry hundreds of vehicles and passengers and are usually equipped with a range of amenities such as public baths and restaurants. Some come close to being luxury liners.

On most long-distance ferries, passengers have the choice between 1st class, 2nd class and more expensive special class on-board accommodation.

Ferry reservations are always necessary at weekends and on public holidays.
