I climbed Mt. Mihara when I went to Izu Oshima ⛰ My first attempt at mountain climbing ✌️ The hotel owner told me to be careful because the wind was strong... but it was really windy and I was scared of strong winds for the first time 🥹 If it was sunny, I'm sure you could see the mouth of the volcano when walking around the crater of Mt. Mihara... I'd like to go again on a sunny day 🙄💗 The wind can never be conveyed in a photo 🌪 #Tokyo trip #Tokyo sightseeing #Tokyo gourmet #Remote island sightseeing #Remote island trip #Izu Oshima #Mt.

It's like a Baumkuchen😋 In Izu Oshima, Tokyo, you can enjoy the cross section of the strata up close. As you drive around Oshima, the stripes of the strata suddenly appear in the southwest part of the island! 👀 I was surprised and impressed by the overwhelming scale of the 24 meters high and 630 meters long 😌 How to get there: Nomasu, Oshima-cho, Tokyo #Tokyo #Oshima #IzuOshima #Strata

It takes just under 2 hours by jet boat from Takeshiba 🚢 Even though we crossed the sea from Tokyo, Oshima, which we arrived at, is actually in Tokyo!!

Mandarin Island Hotel has set a new standard for our family vacations! We enjoyed a flawless 5-day, 4-night stay from beginning to end. Even before our trip, the staff answered all our questions patiently, putting us at ease. That exceptional service continued from the moment we arrived—the entire team was incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive. Traveling with seniors and kids can be stressful, but the hotel's cleanliness, safety, and efficiency allowed us to truly relax. They anticipated our every need and made us feel special. The true gem of this hotel is its amazing staff. Thank you for an unforgettable stay—we can't wait to come back!

The ferry from Tokyo (Takeshiba) was already fully booked, so we departed from Shimoda Port and traveled to Kozushima and Oshima islands 🚢 Kozushima, in particular, has such beautiful sea that it's hard to believe it's part of Tokyo! The itinerary was a bit hectic due to the limited availability of accommodations and the connecting ferry schedule, but the stone-grilled amberjack rice bowl and Ashitaba tempura while watching the sunset over the sea on Oshima were absolutely fantastic! #ferry #Kozushima #Oshima #Tokyo #sea

I took a trip to "Izu Oshima," an island easily accessible from downtown Tokyo via high-speed jet foil or large passenger ship! The magnificent views radiating volcanic energy and the fresh island cuisine were absolutely incredible, so here are my top recommendations. [Dynamic Hiking on Mt. Mihara] Mt. Mihara (elevation 758m) is the symbol of Oshima. The massive crater at the summit is incredibly huge and breathtaking! The "Ohachi-meguri" (Crater Loop) trail is the ultimate trekking course where you can truly feel the earth breathing. [Japan's Only Desert!? Ura-Sabaku & The Black World] This area on the eastern side of Mt. Mihara is covered in black volcanic gravel (scoria). It feels completely otherworldly, like you've just landed on another planet—plus, it's insanely photogenic! [Exquisite Island Cuisine: Bekko Don & Ashitaba] When visiting Oshima, you absolutely have to try "Bekko Don," a rice bowl topped with fresh white fish marinated in a chili soy sauce! The sweet and spicy glaze perfectly complements the tender fish. It also pairs amazingly well with crispy "Ashitaba" (tomorrow's leaf) tempura. [Crystal-Clear Waters and Spectacular Rocky Shores] Since the entire island is designated as a Geopark, the contrast between the rugged lava rocks and the beautiful blue ocean is simply stunning! It's the perfect spot for exploring tidal pools or snorkeling. [The Unique Charm of Sea Travel] Taking in the views from the large passenger ship (Salvia Maru) on the way there and back is one of the best parts of the journey. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean from the deck was a movingly beautiful experience! With such easy access from Tokyo, I highly recommend this spot for a quick weekend getaway, a day trip, or an overnight stay! --- 📍Izu Oshima, Tokyo (Izu Oshima, Tokyo, Japan)

Rules: stay on trail, the steam vent rocks scald, and after 2018 the crater rim road west of Kīlauea Iki is closed—check the board at Jaggar for daily closures. My mistake: I lingered at steam vents at noon; by 1 pm the cloud deck killed the views, morning is cleaner. Verdict: this loop is the best 4-hour volcano primer on Earth for the price. Do you prefer this accessible rim walk, or would you rather backpack the 2-day Kīlauea backcountry for the same volcano?

On Amami Oshima, an outlying island of Kagoshima Prefecture, you can see crystal-clear, beautiful seas!

You can also try surfing 🏄, so why not give it a go? ✨✨ Why not visit Amami Oshima, which has mountains, sea, rivers, and all kinds of nature? 🌿 📍Amami Oshima, Kagoshima Prefecture #DomesticTravel #AmamiOshima #IslandTrip #Japan #JapanTrip

I highly recommend grabbing a bite at this cozy, authentic charcoal-grilled yakitori spot that serves up an amazing homemade Japanese style meal~ (Their dinner menu is highly recommended too!) 🚢 Head to Oshima It’s just a 2-hour boat ride away. I highly recommend visiting the Mt. Mihara Summit Entrance Lookout toward Mt. Fuji. Address: Uenoyama-622 Motomachi, Oshima, Tokyo 100-0101 Open all day, this volcano crater observation deck offers a stunning 360-degree view of Mt. Fuji + beautiful blue skies and white clouds. You can even see the ocean in the distance—the vibe is absolutely majestic! ⛩ Midday Slow Living: Yamanakako Village Lunch + Happy Spacing Out Check into Hotel Mt. Fuji (Yamanaka 1360-83), located right by Lake Yamanaka, offering panoramic views of Mt. Fuji straight from the rooms and public areas. Head down to the lake to feed the swans.

Day 2: Arakurayama Sengen Park → Aokigahara Forest → Fujiyoshida Eats → Back to Tokyo 🌄 Dreamy Morning Photo Op: Arakurayama Sengen Park (Prime Spot for Cherry Blossoms + Mt. Fuji) If you want to capture the ultimate breathtaking morning shot of cherry blossoms + Mt. Fuji, I recommend heading up there super early. There are barely any people, so you can take your time snapping the perfect photos. 🌲 Limited Forest Experience: Aokigahara Forest After the park, head straight for the outer trails of the Aokigahara Forest. It’s a very pristine area, and the air is crisp and freezing cold, making it a great spot to escape the summer heat~ Tip: Just stick to the outer edges. It's super easy to get lost in the forest, so don't venture too deep! 🍜 Midday Flavor Recommendation: Fujiyoshida City Soba Noodle Shop By lunchtime, head into Fujiyoshida City and hunt down a popular local soba noodle shop—friends highly recommend giving it a try~ Nearby, you'll find the Mt. Fuji Station Hotel (2 Chome-7-12 Matsuyama). If you want to rest up for another night, they offer free shuttle buses and a hearty breakfast. Super convenient! 🚞 In the afternoon, take a leisurely ride back to Tokyo. A perfect ending to the trip! ⚡Tips for a Slow-Paced Mt. Fuji Trip⚡ · Lake Yamanaka is the top choice for Mt. Fuji views—gorgeous scenery with way fewer people~ · Book your hotels well in advance during the peak spring cherry blossom and autumn foliage seasons. If you love a good buffet, don't forget to reserve your table! · Do not hike alone or wander off the paths in Aokigahara Forest; staying along the edge is the safest bet. · The shopping streets in Fujiyoshida City have a super nostalgic Showa-era vibe, so be sure to take it all in when you pass through~ · Remember to bring your own swimsuit and a small towel for the hot springs; some open-air baths require you to bring your own~ 🏡 Quick Hotel Info: Hotel Mt. Fuji (Yamanaka 1360-83): Gorgeous views, open-air hot springs facing the mountain, lots of dining options, and incredibly attentive service. Mt. Fuji Station Hotel (2 Chome-7-12 Matsuyama): Conveniently located, free shuttle service, and a solid breakfast.

Google Maps ☆4.6 (Average of multiple spots) Address: Oshima-machi, Tokyo Atmosphere/Facilities: Izu Oshima, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, is characterized by its black lava coastline and crystal-clear waters. The sea breeze is refreshing, and simply walking along the coast is invigorating. The port area is convenient with convenience stores and restaurants, but a little further away, wild nature awaits. Spending time away from the hustle and bustle of the city, listening to the sound of the sea, is perfect for solo travel. The horizon at sunset is especially breathtaking, and you won't be able to stop taking pictures. #solotravel #IzuOshima #seascape #islandtravel

The Izu Oshima Camellia Festival is held annually on Izu Oshima, a Tokyo island known for its scenic coastal roads, natural hot springs, and impressive camellia flower fields. From late January to late March, about three million camellia plants on the island bloom vibrantly. The main venue for the festival is Camellia Square located within Oshima Park. Here, visitors can stroll among the blooming camellias, browse stalls selling camellia oil and local souvenirs, and enjoy cultural performances such as folk dances. These performances take place on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays during the festival. The Oshima Park Camellia Information Center also features special exhibitions of camellia flower arrangements and flower-inspired artworks, adding an artistic touch to the experience. The festival offers a relaxed atmosphere and charming scenery, perfect for those seeking seasonal beauty and local culture. Driving to Camellia Square takes about 12 minutes from Okada Port and less than 20 minutes from Motomachi Port. We encourage visitors to explore the island’s unique charm and celebrate the camellia season together.

I went to see the camellia garden at Oshima Park. Some varieties were in full bloom, and the scent was delightful! After seeing the camellias, there was also a zoo on site, which was even more fun.

The Izu Oshima Camellia Festival is the largest event on the island, fully showcasing the unique charm of Izu Oshima. The main festival venue is located at the Motomachi Port Passenger Waiting Room, where a rich variety of local specialties are gathered, allowing visitors to deeply understand the island's profound historical and cultural heritage. Oshima Park, recognized as an international outstanding camellia garden, is a major highlight of the festival.

Visitors can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery but also participate in exciting activities. At the Camellia Petal Dyeing Experience Workshop, you can personally experience the charm of traditional dyeing techniques; the "Traveling with Camellias and Local Culture" exhibition offers a comprehensive appreciation of the close connection between camellias and the local customs.
