Setonaikai Kisen Ferry

Setonaikai Kisen is a ferry company operating routes linking Hiroshima and Kure with destinations such as Matsuyama, offering a variety of boat travel options depending on your needs, including cruise ferries, high-speed boats, and Super Jet services. On August 1, 2020, a new cruise ferry called "Sea Paseo 2" began service. Its concept is "a park for everyone, where you can enjoy traveling across the Seto Inland Sea," and onboard it offers unique spaces designed so each person can spend time in their own way while experiencing the "KAI" of "comfort," "conversation," and "openness." You can enjoy an extraordinary travel experience on the Hiroshima Port to Matsuyama Tourist Port route, which takes about 2 hours and 40 minutes. For those who want to travel faster and more comfortably, the Super Jet is recommended. The Super Jet is a hydrofoil-type vessel that travels while lifting above the water, and Setonaikai Kisen began operating it in 1994. This service requires an express surcharge, but it can take you from Hiroshima Port to Matsuyama Tourist Port in about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Hiroshima Port is about 30 minutes from Hiroshima Station via Hiroshima Electric Railway Line 5.
