01 · The experience

A quiet stop above the bay

Umihotaru PA sits on an artificial island halfway across the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line. After the dense city, the road opens up, the view opens up, and the atmosphere changes completely.

Choose a random JDM car (Subaru STI, Lancer Evolution, Skyline R34, Chaser) or the VIP class in a GT-R R35 or R34.

Cars gather here naturally, which is what makes the atmosphere feel real. The lineup changes all the time, from older classics to newer street builds, and nothing is arranged like a formal event.

Read more about the spot in our Umihotaru PA guide.

02 · The night

How it goes.

We meet in Shinbashi, stop for photos at Tokyo Tower, cross the Rainbow Bridge and run the Bayshore Line to the Aqua-Line, the bridge-and-tunnel expressway across Tokyo Bay. Umihotaru PA is the stop in the middle of the water, and on weekend nights it is one of the most genuine car meets around Tokyo: GT-Rs, Supras, Silvias, WRXs and whatever else rolled in that night.

  • Umihotaru PA: a car meet on an island in the bay
