• Atakemaru: The eye-catching scarlet Japanese-style boat "Gozabune Atakemaru" (capacity 500) in Kobe Port is modeled after the giant ship "Atakemaru," built by order of the third shogun of the Edo shogunate, Iemitsu. Under the supervision of Okayama-born industrial designer Eiji Mitooka, the boat was renovated in 2017. The all-unreserved interior is decorated with colorful sliding screen paintings, Japanese umbrellas, and ceiling paintings, creating a gorgeous and elegant space that combines styles from all over the world, past and present, like a mandala.
• Royal Princess: This two-story pleasure boat is one of the largest in the Kansai region. (Capacity: 500 passengers) The third floor is an open-air sky deck, offering a 360-degree view of the Kobe cityscape with Mount Rokko as a backdrop. All Royal Princess trips also offer the spectacular view of the Kobe Bridge, a double-deck red iron bridge that connects the port terminal with Port Island, the world's first artificial island. It is lit up at night, and recently the third floor sky deck has become a hot topic on social media as a spot where many passengers can take spectacular, fantastical videos of the Kobe scenery.
