Come aboard our Geosite Cruise, and you’ll also be able to visit the Izu Peninsula Geopark. The Izu Peninsula Geopark is a registered UNESCO Global Geopark. Until several hundred years ago, what is now Dogashima was located on the ocean floor.The underwater volcano located nearby caused the pumice and volcanic ash that had accumulated on the ocean floor to protrude upwards, creating the white cliff.Enjoy a unique view of the geosite from the ocean, with striped geological formations eroded by underwater volcano eruptions and ocean currents, rock veins formed by cooled and hardened magma (volcanic roots), columnar joints, and more.
