Why go

Narrow terraces walled in stone, stacked up a steep headland above the Uwa Sea and planted with early potatoes. The local phrase for it is ploughing up to heaven, and it is a national Important Cultural Landscape. Free to view from the road and the paths; the Dandan-jaya restaurant at the foot opens at weekends, 11:00–14:00.

Before you count on it
  • 2 hr 30 min door to door needs a 4.5-hour call: a 2–3 hour stop cannot hold it. Pick something closer instead.
  • It is a view, so it is weather. Check the morning sky before you commit the hours.
  • No single published ride covers this one. Budget for a taxi both ways, or fold it into a guided day.
Where it is

Yusu Mizugaura terraced fields and your ship

Both pins on one map, so the distance is a fact rather than a feeling.

The arithmetic

Where the 2 hr 30 min goes

The hour before all-aboard is not in this bar; it is already set aside. The minutes are our estimates from timetables and maps, not timed on the ground.

If your ship is late, cut the 1 hr 20 min in the middle. Never cut the hour at the end.

What to put beside it

Each of these still lands you back aboard with the hour to spare.

Build your own day
The one rule: be back on board 60 minutes before all-aboard. Build the whole day on the Uwajima plan page.
