Utilizing the facilities onboard and harnessing the talents of staff and participants alike, Peace Boat creates a unique environment in which people can live and learn together while traveling in a socially responsible way. The ship creates a unique neutral, mobile space and enables people to engage in dialogue and mutual cooperation across borders while at sea, and in the ports that we visit. Since its first voyage in 1983, Peace Boat has organized more than 85 global and regional voyages, taken over 50,000 participants onboard and visited over 200 ports of call. AN INSPIRING AND FRIENDLY COMMUNITY STUDY GE AND EXCHAN PORT IN MMES PROGRA Ishigaki Island (Okinawa) Ishigaki Island is one of the many islands of Okinawa. Famous for its marine biodiversity, tourists visit the island to enjoy its natural wonders including its Manta rays. As in many tourist destinations, the people of Ishigaki are striveing to balance economic development and nature conservation. Keelung (Taiwan) Keelung is located close to the capital city of Taipei as well as many important cultural historical and natural sites in Taiwan. Taiwan was once a colony of Japan, and its geographical location is of geopolitical importance. From enjoying its rich culture to learning about its history, there are many options to explore during your visit to this fascinating city. Naha (Okinawa) Okinawa, once an independent kingdom called Ryukyu, has many faces. Boasting dense forests, crystal clear sea and a unique cultural heritage, Okinawa also has the largest number of military bases in Japan. With Peace Boat you will be able to see past the tourism in Okinawa and hear stories from the local people to see another face of the island. Hakata (Japan) A cosmopolitan city in the south west of Japan, Hakata has served for many years as a gateway between Japan and the rest of East Asia. The oppotunity to meet with former miners and learn the history of Miike coal mine, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site where many Koreans were forced to work during the war, is one of the unique learning experiences offered by Peace Boat. Jeju Island (South Korea) Jeju is a beautiful volcanic island located in the Korea Strait. It is home to the higest mountain in South Korea and boasts the world’s largest lava tube system of caves. In contrast to its peaceful scenery, the island suffered a sad history of colonization by Japan. Peace Boat frequently visits this island to learn from its history so as not to repeat it in the future. Hiroshima (Japan) 2015 marks 70 years since the end of World War II. The Hiroshima War Memorial, now a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage, is an opportunity to think about the importance of nuclear disarmament for peace. Hiroshima also hosts another UNESCO World Heritage site, Itukushima shrine (cover page), said to be one of three best views in Japan. *Optional tours and programs in ports are not included in the voyage fare.
