DAY 9

Time at Port: from 2 AM to 4 AM
A stunning stretch of water separating Honshu and Kyushu, two of Japan’s four main islands, the Kanmon Straits (which are also known as the Straits of Shimonoseki) are surprisingly narrow for the number of ships (around 700 on an average day) that take advantage of this waterway daily. Playing an important role in Japan’s naval history, with numerous battles between Japan and the US taking place here throughout the Shimonoseki Campaign in 1863, cruising through this stretch of water will afford you the opportunity to admire the stunning scenery of both Japanese islands at the same time. Every August, the Kanmon Strait plays host to the largest firework display in Japan, where more than 13,000 fireworks are launched from both sides of the strait into the night sky.
Scenic Cruising Kanmon Straits:
Mekari Shrine
A Shinto shrine established circa 200 in Kitakyushu, Mekari Shrine is visible from the Kanmon Straits; built by Empress Jingu after her visit during the legendary Korean invasion in the 3rd century, the shrine was built as thanks to the Kami.

Dannoura Battlefield
This slender stretch of greenspace in Mimosusogawa Park, which is visible from the Kanmon Straits, features several statues representing the warring Heike and Genji clans – prominent clans who fought each other during a major sea battle in 1185 during the Genpei War. While legends vary on the number of ships and fighters involved, the Heike clan (which was known as the Taira clan) was decimated as a result and the Genji clan (known as the Minamoto clan) gained control of Japan as a result.
Kanmon Bridge
Opened in 1973, you’ll pass under Kanmon Bridge as you sail the Kanmon Straits. Among the world’s longest suspension bridges, stretching over 3,500 feet across the waterway, Kanmon Bridge connects Shimonoseki and Kitakyushu.

We loved the ship and the crew were friendly and helpful. However, our one dissatisfaction was obtaining hot food in the 'Atlantide' restaurant at Dinner. Even when we stated we liked hot food on hot plates, the food was barely warm, which so distracts from the flavour and enjoyment.
