Ine Bay Sightseeing Boat

伊根湾めぐり遊覧船

Kyoto · Kansai

A boat cruise around Ine Bay past its roughly 230 funaya (boathouses built directly over the water), offering a view of the village impossible to get from land.

Why we picked it

A completely different vantage on Ine's famous boathouses than the static shoreline view most visitors get.
