Explore Osaka Bay from a unique perspective aboard the Santa Maria, a spectacular vessel inspired by the ship captained by Christopher Columbus. This larger and more spacious modern version offers a comfortable and scenic ride, ideal for those who want to combine history, sea and cityscapes.

The cruise departs from the west pier of the Kaiyukan, next to the Osaka Aquarium in the Tempozan port district. During the 45-minute tour, you'll cruise past some of the highlights of Osaka's waterfront, with stunning views of the harbour, modern architectural structures and the area's maritime activity.

The Santa Maria departs once an hour, giving you the flexibility to fit it into your itinerary.

Tickets must be exchanged at the counter on the first floor of the aquarium entrance building. It is important to bring your physical passport and e-voucher on the day of the tour. Punctuality is essential, as the boat does not wait for late passengers and no refunds are given for no-shows.

In addition, for safety and comfort reasons, no outside food or drink is allowed on board, and adults over the age of 70 must present a medical certificate if they wish to board.
