NEWT for international and domestic travel tours and hotel reservationsRoadside Station Uzushio" was introduced in

Michi no Eki Uzushio is the closest roadside station to the whirlpools in Japan, and will reopen in October 2025 with more attractions and gourmet foods! The concept of the station is "vortex excitement," and visitors can experience the fun of visiting attractions like the tidal currents.

In front of the 360° Sanrokumaru with a spectacular view is the Naruto whirlpools, one of the world's three major tidal currents. The dynamic view of the ocean and Onaruto Bridge, which changes its expression depending on the time of day, is so powerful that you will want to take a picture of it. On a clear day, you can even see as far as Shikoku Island, making it one of the best viewpoints on Awaji Island.

In addition, there are many gourmet restaurants such as "Awajishima Burger," which won first and second place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix, "Irori Shokudo Uzushio" where you can enjoy Awaji's seafood, and "Awajishima Milk Stand + (plus)" which boasts of its rich soft-serve ice cream. The area is packed with attractions that make it a destination rather than a stopover!

Popular products at Roadside Station Uzushio

Recommended for dining are the premium versions of the Awajishima Onion Beef Burger (first place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix in 2013) and the Onion Gratin Burger (second place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix in 2014) from Awajishima Burger. The Onion Beef Burger Premium keeps the 8mm thick Awaji Island onion cutlet, but adds a juicy Awaji beef patty! The Onion Gratin Burger Premium adds a juicy chicken patty and grilled onions for a full volume.

If you are interested in sweets, check out the Awajishima Milk Stand + (plus)! In addition to the original milk soft serve at Uzushio Roadside Station, "This is An Balance - Dobon in a cup when you eat it" is also recommended for Japanese sweets lovers with the perfect balance of anko (red bean paste) and soft serve.

In addition, the "Shop Uzunokuni" at Michi no Eki Uzushio offers a wide variety of limited-edition products that can only be found here! The number of items is as many as 120, making it a great place to look for souvenirs.
