Title: Chasing Setouchi Blue: A Slow Traveler’s Guide to the Shimanami Kaido Discover the “Cyclist’s Holy Grail” at your own pace. A “Relaxing Journey” with full facility links.

The Shimanami Kaido connects the islands of the Seto Inland Sea from Onomichi, Hiroshima, to Imabari, Ehime, via six majestic bridges. It is a route that draws travelers from across the globe—but to simply ride through it would be a missed opportunity.

“Chasing Setouchi Blue” is a guidebook for “Slow Travel.” It invites you to shed the frantic pace of daily life and immerse yourself in the unique atmosphere of the islands and the lives of the people who call them home.

Highlights of This Book:

Deep Dives into Island Charms: From the nostalgic slopes of Onomichi to the contemporary art of Ikuchijima and the sacred forests of Omishima, we explore the distinct character of every island.

A “Culinary Journey”: Comprehensive information on the food essential to any island trip—exquisite seafood bowls, refreshing lemon sweets, and the rewarding gourmet treats that await at the finish line.

Travel via Photos and Illustrations: Experience the journey with beautiful visuals that capture the essence of the islands, making you feel as if you are already there.

Practical & Worry-Free Guide: Packed with tips for beginners, from how to rent a bike to luggage delivery services, ensuring you never lose your way.
