A sightseeing boat used for a 20-minute-cruise looks exaxctly like a U.S. gunboat ship when the United States demanded Japan to open to the world in mid 19th century. It starts from Shimoda Port every day from 9:10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Fare: 1000 yen for adult, 500 yen for children 12 or under.

Odoriko Express is a non-stop train service from Tokyo to Shimoda or Shuzenji. It saves the hassle of Shinkansen-local-train transit at Atami and the duration of the train ride is not that different.
