The strait between Honshu and the southern islands of Japan, particularly Shikoku, is known as the Seto Inland Sea. This inland sea is characterized by numerous islands and is a crucial waterway for shipping and fishing. It separates Honshu, Japan's largest island, from its smaller southern islands, providing scenic views and rich biodiversity. The region is also significant culturally and historically, featuring many traditional towns and landmarks.
