💡 Tips for Visitors

Arrive early to avoid long queues in the sun and secure good viewing spots, especially during warm weather. The second floor viewing deck requires an additional 600 yen fee but offers better views and seating (first-come, first-served). Don't be pressured at the ticket office about departure times—staff may rush you even when the ship hasn't arrived yet, so take your time.
