Ofune Camome
A leisurely cruise along the rivers of Osaka, Ofune Camome offers a cozy, home-like atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy the sights from the comfort of a sightseeing boat.
Ofune Camome offers popular sightseeing cruises along the rivers of Osaka, such as the Okawa River, Dotonbori, and Osaka Bay. The 10-passenger boat, originally used for pearl farming and redesigned for leisurely cruises, allows guests to enjoy a peaceful journey with scenic views from its open wooden deck.
Among the various cruise options, the most popular is the shared cruise, held on Saturdays and Sundays, in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The daytime cruise offers views of historical landmarks like Osaka Castle and the iconic buildings of Nakanoshima, while the evening cruise allows passengers to enjoy the vibrant neon lights of Dotonbori. The morning cruise is especially unique, offering a farm-fresh breakfast featuring vegetables and fruits enjoyed with beautiful morning scenery.
Special seasonal and themed cruises are also available, such as the "Camome Sakura Cruise," which takes guests past the cherry blossoms of Nakanoshima, one of Osaka’s best hanami spots, and the "Doboku Cruise," where passengers can marvel at the massive structures of Osaka’s ports and shipyards. Private cruises are also popular, offering flexible timing and routes for events such as weddings or birthday parties, ensuring a personalized experience.
