A SUP experience tour to the mysterious Shirahige Shrine, with its beautiful crystal clear water and floating torii gates! In the beautiful west side of Lake Biwa, which boasts the best water quality in Lake Biwa, you can feel the overwhelming vastness of Lake Biwa and the grandeur of nature while gazing at the horizon. Enjoy the majestic mountains and the beautiful Lake Biwa! Take a commemorative photo in front of the torii gate in the lake! The destination, Shirahige Shrine, is a power spot that Lake Biwa is proud of! It is also called Omi's Itsukushima because of the large torii gate floating in the lake with Okishima in the background. It is the oldest shrine in Omi, and as the name suggests, it is known as the god of longevity and long life, and is also the "god of guidance" for all business, including safe navigation, which is perfect for SUP. The large torii gate is also said to be a landmark for worship by boat. There are many things to see in the shrine grounds, so be sure to visit and then head home!
