For an authentic, cultural experience on Sado Island in Niigata prefecture, you might enjoy a ride in a ‘tarai-bune’, a kind of tub boat. Head to Ogi Town on the island, where you can hire the boats for around 500 yen per person for a 10 minute ride, (approx $6 AUD). Boats depart from both Ogi Harbor and Yajima-Kyojima (Ya Island and Kyo Island). Photo by @ippei.janine #VisitJapanAU
