What other travelers are saying about Osaka Bay Area

Been to Osaka Bay Area 5 years ago, it was fantastic. This area is a collection of young city districts on man-made waterfront islands and peninsulas, built to accommodate the growth of Osaka City. The districts host a variety of tourist attractions e.g., museums, theme parks, observatories and shopping centers. Osaka's domestic and international port facilities are also found in the area.

Nice bay shuttle boat from Kobe airport to Kansai International Airport. It takes only 30minutes. Nice weather! The boat is ready and the staff were responsible locking the luggages. I saw family and friends farewelling
