The Onaruto Bridge across the Naruto Strait

The name Naruto is said to come from the "narrow gate with a deafening sound". Due to the ingenious terrain of the surrounding area and the influence of the moon tides, the ocean currents naturally form whirlpools with a maximum diameter of 20 meters in the Naruto Strait. The majestic sound of the waters colliding with each other is awe-inspiring to the mystery and power of nature. Naruto Park is located next to the Naruto Strait. There are many observation decks in the park, which are excellent places to overlook the Onaruto Bridge, the Seto Inland Sea, and the Kii Channel. After the opening of the Uzumaki-no-Michi under the Onaruto Bridge, there is an additional feature that allows people to enjoy the whirlpools from the bridge.
