Cruising Setouchi island and orange picking

We went to Nomi island about 30mins. from Hiroshima port on a sunny day in Nov.

We joined a tour hosted by HOT(Hiroshima optional tours) which is supported by Hiroshima city gov. and run by CRRC(Chugoku Regional Research Center).

HOT is hosting various tours to help travelers from abroad looking around Hiroshima.
Check their websites for detail:http://www.hiroshimatours.info/

We call "Setouchi sea" about the ocean areas between Honshu and Shikoku.
There are hundreds of islands in Setouchi areas.

We took a boat from Hiroshima port to Nomi island. It was so nice to feel the cool breeze. It was really nice weather.




After arrived in Nomi island, we went to orange farm to pick. not for labor work
We went to pick our oranges to eat in the farm. There is no time limit you can stay in the farm as long as you want and you can eat oranges as much as you want. But we have to pay when we bring these to home. no oranges should be in your pocket or backpack when you leave

It was really nice view from the farm.



We finally had about 15 oranges. after that we went to Onsen on the way to the ferry terminal.
That was soooo good. We had a wonderful holiday.
