Ogijima Lighthouse and Cat Island

Located about 40 minutes by ferry from Takamatsu Port, Ogijima is a small island where densely packed houses cling to steep slopes and maze-like stone-paved alleys create a unique atmosphere. The Ogijima Lighthouse at the island's north end is a beautiful granite structure and also known as a film location. Artworks from the Setouchi International Art Festival are scattered throughout the island, offering an engaging art exploration. The island is famous as a 'cat island' with many cats, and you can encounter them throughout the winding alleys.
