Tokushima-Komatsushima Port

Tokushima, Japan

Located in the eastern part of Shikoku Island, Tokushima-Komatsushima Port serves as a major hub for maritime traffic connecting Shikoku to the Kansai area. The port consists of several districts along the east coast, offering deep quays for different types of cargo ships. The Awa Odori Dance Festival in August attracts passenger ships from around the world. Tourists can enjoy local gourmet like Tokushima Ramen with brown pork bone and soy sauce soup, Fish Katsu, and experience the Naruto Whirlpools. The festival, with around 100,000 dancers, rivals the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro.
