Tokushima Prefecture is the only prefecture in Japan that does not have trains that operate by electricity. All trains are diesel-powered via fuel, but there is a very unique mode of transportation here. This is the world`s first Dual-mode vehicle (DMV), which can be used on both roads and railway tracks. Here is a model course in southern Tokushima Prefecture where you can experience a ride in a DMV, try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and perhaps stay at an inn.

At the Awashima Beach in Anan City, about 40 minutes by car from Tokushima City, you can try SUP, a sport where one stands on a board and paddles forward with a single paddle. The board is thick and long enough to provide a sense of stability, making it easy to use for either children and adults, regardless of one`s experience.

In 2021, the Asa Coastal Railway became the first in the world to begin commercial operation of the DMV, which operates between Awa Kainan Bunka Mura in Tokushima Prefecture and Umi no Eki Toromu in Kochi Prefecture. Visitors can enjoy a trip by train and bus trip along sightseeing spots in this area of Shikoku.

The inn is dedicated to providing travelers with comfortable accommodations and all guest rooms have ocean views and overlook the blue expanse of the sea. While here you can feel the charm of Shishikui, a small town in the southern part of Tokushima Prefecture.
