Final Thoughts
This long-established international event, held last year in Italy and hosted in countries around the world, is apparently coming to Omaehama in Nishinomiya. With kitchen trucks, yacht experiences, and even the chance to ride along on a yacht out offshore to watch the action, there are experiences here you can only have at this event. It’ll probably make for an unforgettable Marine Day.
