If you want to enjoy a trip to Sendai with a bit of celebrity, the Pacific Ferry is definitely the place to go!

“I want to travel to Miyagi Prefecture!”
“I want to make my trip to Sendai an unforgettable memory!”
“I want to enjoy a slightly more adult trip!”

In this article, we will suggest a trip that will make you a bit of a celebrity.
There are many ways to get to Sendai, including cars, bullet trains, and planes, but the one I recommend is the ferry.
There are only a limited number of ports that depart from and arrive at Sendai, but if you can use a ferry, please consider using it!

 

Just gorgeous! The charm of Taiheiyo Ferry

The regular ferry service that takes you to Sendai is Taiheiyo Ferry.
The Taiheiyo Ferry, which connects Tomakomai, Sendai, and Nagoya, is one of the most reasonable means of transportation that allows you to enjoy the elegant journey to Sendai.
Here, we will introduce the appeal of Taiheiyo Ferry.

A lounge so beautiful that you don't want to go back to your room

Look at this size!

The lounge has an open feel even though it's on a ship.
During the day, musical performances are held on the piano in this lounge, which is a great way to liven up your cruise.
It can be said that being surrounded by music while looking out at the wide ocean from the window is the ultimate luxury.

The lounge also has a snack cafe, which is perfect for enjoying lunch or afternoon tea time.

 

Viking morning, noon and night

One of the attractions is the restaurant, where you can enjoy dinner, morning, and lunch all in buffet style, although there is an additional charge.

Just because you're on a ship, you can't skimp on cooking either.
The variety of menus, including meat and fish dishes, is so rich that it surpasses even a poor hotel buffet.

An observation bath with a view of the endless ocean

The ferry is also equipped with bathing facilities.

The large public bath has large windows, so you can take a bath while looking out at the endless ocean.
The bath also ripples in conjunction with the ocean waves, giving you the illusion of being under the sea.

Why not think about your destination, Sendai, while soaking in the warm water?

 

Evening entertainment, theater lounge show

The nightly entertainment is the theater lounge show, which is held every night from 8:00 p.m.

The gorgeous shows performed by artists from various genres are a huge success, with all the seats filled every time.
Being able to watch a full-fledged concert for free is a special perk of traveling by ferry!

 

There's also a game corner and souvenir shop so you won't get bored!

It takes quite a while to get to Sendai by ferry.
It is surprising that it takes 15 hours from Tomakomai and around 20 hours from Nagoya.

Some people may think that if it takes that long, they might get a little bored.

For such people, we recommend killing time at the game corner or shop.
The game corner is stocked with many games that are perfect for killing time, including classic cabinets for ``Puyo Puyo'' and mahjong games, as well as slot machines.

The shop has a large selection of souvenirs from Hokkaido, Miyagi, and Nagoya, so just looking at them will get you excited.
Of course, we also have sweets, snacks, and alcohol available, so waiting for your arrival while enjoying a drink is a fun part of traveling!

 

Look at the horizon from the observation deck!

The best part of the ferry ride is the observation deck.

The sense of openness where there is nothing left, right, front, back, or beyond the horizon is an experience that cannot be replaced by anything else.
A slightly stronger wind also makes the trip more enjoyable.

You'll be very lucky if you can catch it just in time to pass by the ferry on your way home.
Be sure to take photos of ferries cruising on the sea, which you can't usually see!

 

summary

A trip by ferry is the most affordable way for adults to experience the feeling of being a celebrity.

If you stay in a large room with no partitions, you can enjoy it for as little as 7,200 yen.
Of course, only if you get in without a car.

By the way, you can stay in the most expensive room, the Royal Suite, for 47,500 yen.
Whether you think it's cheap or expensive is up to you, but to be honest, you'll be more busy enjoying the ship than staying in your room, so when you board for the first time, try staying in a cheaper room instead of an expensive one. It would be nice to wander around the ship.
