To travel around the Sanriku coast, the Kita Riasu Line takes visitors along the coast from Iwate Prefecture’s Miyako Station to Kuji Station. To travel inland, there are no trains, thus, it is necessary to make use of a car or busses. To access the Sanriku area, it is convenient to arrive by Shinkansen bullet train or by bus. Take the Shinkansen to Morioka Station and transfer to a highway bus. From Tokyo, the trip will take approximately 4 hours.
