A Peaceful Escape: River Cruise in Tokushima

Nestled in the heart of Shikoku, Tokushima offers more than just its famous Awa Odori. One of the most underrated experiences here is the peaceful river cruise. As the boat glides along the gentle waters, you’re treated to scenic views of lush greenery, charming riverside houses, and reflections of the sky that make you forget you’re still in the city.

Whether you’re a local needing a break or a traveler wanting to slow down, the cruise offers a refreshing moment of stillness. It’s a perfect mix of nature, culture, and quiet joy—something I didn’t know I needed until I experienced it.

Sometimes, the best way to explore a place is to drift through it—literally.

A Little Background on Awa Odori
Awa Odori (阿波おどり) is Japan’s largest traditional dance festival, held every August in Tokushima Prefecture on Shikoku Island. The name literally means “Awa Dance” — Awa being the old name for Tokushima, and Odori meaning “dance.”

Its roots trace back over 400 years, believed to have started during the Edo Period as a form of joyful celebration after the construction of Tokushima Castle. Over time, it evolved into a powerful symbol of summer, community, and Japanese tradition.

Dancers, known as “ren,” perform in coordinated groups with live music from shamisen, flutes, taiko drums, and bells. The iconic chant “Yatto sa, yatto yatto!” fills the air as performers move through the streets in elegant or energetic styles—depending on the group.

Today, Awa Odori attracts over a million visitors each year, and its lively spirit has inspired smaller versions of the festival across Japan, including Tokyo’s Koenji Awa Odori.
