Cruises visiting Sakitsu, Unzen-Amakusa National Park
Facing the mythical island of Kyushu, between the Yatsushiro and Ariake seas, the island region of Amakusa both surprises and captivates. Composed of some one hundred verdant islets surrounded by stunning seabeds, the Japanese archipelago was once a refuge for many Christians fleeing the ban on Catholicism in the 17th century during the Edo period. Nestled on the shore of a cove opening onto the calm waters of Yôkaku Bay, Sakitsu is a charming fishing port. Immerse yourself in its Christian heritage, notably through a visit to its emblematic church blending Western and Japanese cultures. Rebuilt in 1934, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
