Tour Overview

A paradise for cat lovers – Tashirojima, also known as Miyagi Prefecture's Cat Island, is a cat island located in the Pacific Ocean near Ishinomaki City in Miyagi Prefecture, Tohoku. Over 130 cats live alongside the island's inhabitants. Because cats outnumber residents, it's also known as "Cat Island," attracting the attention of cat lovers. For cat lovers, the moment of playing with cats is pure bliss. Accessible only by speedboat or ferry.
The island boasts a cat shrine and small shops called "Island Station," allowing you to encounter the island's cats as you stroll. Tashirojima is a relaxing haven where many cats live comfortably. Why not enjoy a relaxing stroll around the island, enjoying the scenery, petting the cats, and taking photos?
Depart from JR Sendai Station to the ferry terminal at Ishinomaki Port.
From there, take the ferry to Tashirojima.
Disembark at Nitoda Port, head to the island, explore the island (approximately 120 minutes), and then board the island-leaving ferry at Ōdomari Port. After returning to Ishinomaki Port, take a bus back to Sendai City.
