ASUKA III Cruises
Four days round-trip from Kobe with a full day at Kochi. On the curved sands of Katsurahama, a statue of Sakamoto Ryoma looks out over the Pacific; the castle and market are a shuttle ride away.
In Kobe the mountains and the sea are only a few streets apart. The Kitano houses were built for foreign merchants in the Meiji era, the stone buildings of the old foreign settlement are now shops, and the waterfront lights up after dark. From the terminal, Sannomiya is a walk or a short ride away.
