"Cruise Nagoya" is a water bus that operates from the Nakagawa Canal to the Port of Nagoya and Kinjo Wharf area. Many of you may have seen colorful boats.

Convenient access to popular spots such as Legoland Japan, Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium, and Sasashima Live! Not only that, but the scenery of Nagoya that can only be seen from the water is also a big attraction.

This time we have boarded the cruise Nagoya, so we will fully deliver its charm!

Let's go then.

What is Cruise Nagoya?

The Nakagawa Canal was once called the grandest canal in the East. It has contributed greatly to Nagoya's economic development as a water transportation and logistics artery. "Cruise Nagoya" was launched in 2017 to revitalize the Nakagawa Canal and create a lively atmosphere at the Port of Nagoya.

The cruise connects the "city center" of Nagoya with the "port area" and allows passengers to enjoy unusual views of Nagoya, such as "Sasashima Live" overlooking the buildings of Nagoya Station, the "Nakagawa-guchi Tsutenmon" where you can experience the Panama Canal, traditional warehouses, and large ships coming and going at the Port of Nagoya.
