About This Video

Hangiri are large wooden tub boats that form part of Sado Island’s distinctive coastal heritage. Once used as practical fishing vessels around the Ogi Peninsula, they are now preserved through visitor experiences.

This video follows a night Hangiri ride near Shukunegi, where the quiet water and darkness create an especially atmospheric way to experience this local tradition.
