Keeping the upbeat tempo, whirlpools excite the Naruto sea off Tokushima, while inland, dramatic cliffs line the Iya Valley, promising unrivaled views of vast and vibrant scenery.

Getting Around
The first prefecture reached when arriving in Shikoku from the Osaka area, Tokushima is a good place to commence a Shikoku adventure. While trains from Okayama provide access to the north coast of Shikoku, Honshu and Tokushima are connected by a bus route, either on a two-hour trip from Shin-Kobe Station to Tokushima Station or three hours from Kyoto Station to Tokushima Station.
