From the Hokkaido World / Places
Wakkanai
Wakkanai is Hokkaido’s northern port, with Cape Soya, a distinctive breakwater dome and ferry access to Rishiri and Rebun. The cape and islands require separate travel plans.
Use Wakkanai to experience the far northern coast, not just to pass through its ferry terminal. Cape Soya marks Japan’s northern tip, while the Port Northern Breakwater Dome tells a different story of the exposed harbour. The islands open up a further, longer excursion.
What to look for
Cape Soya marks the northern tip of Japan.
The Port Northern Breakwater Dome has a striking curved harbour form.
Ferries link Wakkanai with Rishiri and Rebun islands.
Useful to know
Plan Cape Soya as a trip beyond the port area.
Check ferry schedules and weather before committing to an island visit.
