Yokohama Port amphibious bus

One of the goals of this plan is to improve migration in the coastal area of the city. In addition, with the revision of the Yokohama Port Port and Harbor Plan in December 2014, we set "revitalization water area for recreation". This water area promotes the use of water transportation and sightseeing boats, including marine recreation activities.
