FULL ITINERARY

Ship Arrival

Settle into your comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and prepare to discover some of the region’s most remarkable Mt. Fuji viewpoints with Shore Excursions Asia, your trusted local expert.

Shiraito Falls

Your first stop is the serene Shiraito Falls, one of Japan’s most beautiful and celebrated waterfalls. Fed by underground springs from Mt. Fuji, countless silky white streams cascade gracefully down a lush, moss-covered cliffside.

Take time to enjoy the refreshing atmosphere, peaceful walking paths, and picturesque scenery that reflect the natural charm of Shizuoka. On clear days, the surrounding area may also offer beautiful views of Mt. Fuji.

Mt. Fuji World Heritage Centre

Guests travelling aboard Navigator of the Seas will next visit the Mt. Fuji World Heritage Centre in Fujinomiya, a modern museum dedicated to the natural, cultural, and spiritual significance of Japan’s sacred mountain.

Through engaging exhibitions, films, and interactive displays, gain deeper insight into Mt. Fuji’s history, environmental importance, pilgrimage traditions, and recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Nihondaira Yume Terrace

Continue to the striking Nihondaira Yume Terrace, a beautifully designed wooden observatory overlooking Mt. Fuji, Suruga Bay, and the Izu Peninsula.

Walk along the elevated observation deck and admire the panoramic landscape from one of Shizuoka’s most impressive viewpoints. The terrace’s elegant architecture blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings, creating a relaxing setting for sightseeing and photography.

Miho-no-Matsubara

Next, travel to the enchanting Miho-no-Matsubara, a scenic coastal pine grove recognized as part of the Mt. Fuji UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Stroll along the distinctive black sand beach lined with thousands of pine trees and, weather permitting, admire the magnificent sight of Mt. Fuji rising beyond Suruga Bay. This timeless landscape has been celebrated in Japanese art, literature, and poetry for centuries.

Return to Port

After completing your sightseeing programme, relax during the comfortable drive back to Shimizu Port. Your return timing will be carefully coordinated with your ship’s departure schedule, allowing you to conclude your Shimizu shore excursions with lasting memories of Mt. Fuji and the serene landscapes of Shizuoka.
