    You can feed the sea eagles during the boat ride. They fly so closed and you can see their majestic movements clearly.

    Fabulous little trip. Best part is feeding the gulls and the Kites.

    Boat seems to leave every 30 minutes. Costs 800 yen a person and ride lasts around 20ish minutes. Was plenty of parting during off season but would be a problem in summer. It can get chilly on winter so dress accordingly

    A bit too short just only 25 min, little to none English explanation. The view is great. Lots of seagulls.

    Very nice experience You can see the wonderful view of ine Bay. You can also buy the shrimp chips for feeding the seabird. It is so much fun. If you are brave enough, you can hold the chip and the seabird will come to pick from your finger. It is recommended

    Short sightseeing, if it is included in your ticket, it was good to go. The fun thing is to feed the seagulls 🏞

    Its breathtaking place. If you drive, parking is way convenient!!! If you dont drive, there is a bus that you can take from osaka. Otherwise, can be reached by changing trains and taking shuttle from amanohashidate!. Overall a must go if you're a nature lover!!

    I love this tourist attraction, but a little hesitant about their tourism strategy. I mean I love feeding seagulls, even the eagle. However, this kinda took the attention away from the actual tourist attraction: the platform houses. Overall, still worth the try (this one of the kinds that only tourist buses coming makes sense)

    Visitor take a boat trip for around half an hour enjoying a wonderful view over an aged village with crowds od seagull and eagles flying around. A local trip can to be purchased on line.

    A sleepy and dreamy fishing village in the northern part of Kyoto. A recommended side trip when you're visiting Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three scenic views.

  • 5/5 Maayan D. 1 year ago on Google
    A 25 minutes tour on a boat to see Ine Bay, a town of floating houses with their first floor being a garage for the boats. It is very beautiful and worthwhile for those who have some time... I took an organized tour that combines Ine Bay with some other small interesting town and locations worth seeing and so it was worth it.

    Amazing boat trip 😍😍 Trip every 30 min, adult 1000 yen & kids free 👍 You can easily feed birds 🦢 & enjoy wonderful scene as seen in pictures Highly recommended

  • 5/5 A P. 5 years ago on Google
    If you’re around the place, this is a must do spot as well as taking the fairy. Seeing the views is nice, feeding seagulls and eagles is actually the highlight and life time experience. It is entertainingly well as fun to have so many birds folding the boat, and the number of birds is actually incredible. The whole ride takes about 30 minutes round trip, and totally whole a while. This is my second time doing it, and I still find it fun and entertaining.

    Ine Bay is nice for taking pictures and while you are riding a sightseeing boat. View is really fantastic.

    Very nice view for the boat trip and it’s suitable for couple/family with kids and👍🏽(don’t forget to buy the Prawn Crackers in the shop,it’s fun in the boat)

    Short twirl around the bay to view its houses and landscape. We went on a fairly warm day, opted for seats in the lower deck, and the shade plus breeze made for a good respite from the heat. Passengers on the top deck had gotten food for the seagulls so we had very clear view of seagull feeding. I would recommend the ride.

👍👍 It's not a big precinct, but it's a shrine wrapped in silence. The legend of Taro Urashima remains. There is no one in the shrine office, and the price is written on the amulet or talisman, and the price is left at the designated place and taken home. I also left the goshuin, but when I was visitin...

👍 I wonder if you could make an anime out of this scene in something like Ghibli. It's the best Japanese scenery. Urashima Taro might have really existed. I slowly looked at this scenery while thinking. It's an era like this, so i wonder if it's good to feel the flow of time relaxed. The sea is also...

👍👍 If you want to visit the Ine Funaya from the sea, this is definitely a recommended cruise ship. There is also a large boat tour, but I was thinking of making it bigger. There are many good places because of the small boat. 1. Come pick me up anywhere! If there is a sea taxi in Ine Bay where you ca...
