The Yawatahama Ferry Terminal serves as the gateway for the ferry line that connects Shikoku and Kyushu. Passenger ships operate daily from Ehime's Yawatahama to Usuki and Beppu in Oita.

There is a café called Petit Pont on the second floor, where visitors can enjoy food, drinks, and sweets while admiring the beautiful sea view. This spot is not only perfect for spending time during ferry trips but also recommended for those who want to enjoy a peaceful day gazing out at the calm Uwa Sea.
