Concept

The brand concept is “Setouchi Reflection Trip,” a named derived from the characteristically tranquil inland sea which both physically reflects anything resting on its calm surface, and psychologically embodies a sense of serenity constructive for travelers’ self-reflection and meditation. Whether it be by cycling or sailing, the DMO aims to create an experience that will enrich travelers during their journey through the 450 kilometer long island-scape, not only by discovering real Japanese culture, but by creating the opportunity for travelers rediscover their own personas when uninterrupted by the turbulence of everyday life.
