Cape Irago

Starting from Nagoya city train sta.
Take the Meitetsu line to Kowa, the port. This will take 45 mins.
Kowa is the last train sta. for this line.. once arrived.. take a short 1 min ride by bus to the Kowa port at platform 2. Owh well.. u can walk if u like.. from the station. . Head left and walk staight up to the ferry sta.
Then take a ferry from Port of Kowa to reach Port Irago to get to Cape Irago. This will take 40 mins. Note that this is not a direct ferry.. so dont get off at the wrong port ok! ; 0
Irago misaki
Irago is located at the tip south of Atsumi Peninsula.. famous for it's special form of seaweed.. like a jelly type seaweed and dried form.
The trip distance for over-sea is 80km from Nagoya sta.
----
For coming back.. we will take a bus to Toyohashi Sta. (¥1,490) which will take abt 2 hrs. So there'll be no ferry ride for this route. Total time is also longer as the distance will be 130km via this over-land route.
Bus route is very interesting.. you will get to see the agricultural activity in this Tahara city area. Mostly are corn, cabbage,  pineapple,  honey dew and many other types of fruits and vegetables.
Remember the bus route will take abt 2 hrs.. so please don't get off at Tahara city sta. (Approximately 1 hour distance from Irago). Tahara train somehow is not connected or more difficult to reach to Nagoya sta. compared to Toyohashi sta.
Once reached Toyohashi, take a JR line (or maybe Meitetsu) to Nagoya sta. This will take an hour.
