○Detail information of “Sado kisen”
“Sado kisen” operates ships to get to Sado island.
Sado is shaped like an “S” or “Z,” with the Osado Mountains, including Kinpokusan of 1,172 metres to the north, the Kosado Mountains including Ojiyama of 645 metres to the south, and the widespread Kuninaka Plain between the two mountain ranges.
Sado Island covers an area of approximately 855 square kilometres, and its coastline stretches approximately 280 kilometres. Sado is the largest island in the Sea of Japan, one and a half times as large as the twenty-three special wards of Tokyo, or Awaji Island (Japan), or Guam or Phuket.
Sado Island’s climate is oceanic, with distinct changes across the four seasons. It is hot and very humid in summer. Since Sado is an isolated island off the coast of mainland Niigata, which evokes the images of snow, it is thought to be very cold in winter. However, due to the Tsushima Warm Current which flows off the coast of the island, Sado actually has less snow than the mainland.
