The Bungo Channel (豊後水道, Bungo-suidō[1]) is a strait separating the Japanese islands of Kyushu and Shikoku.

[2] The narrowest part of this channel is the Hōyo Strait.

In the English-speaking world, the Bungo Strait is most known as a setting in the 1958 World War II submarine film Run Silent, Run Deep, based upon the best-selling 1955 novel by then-Commander Edward L. Beach Jr.[3]
