Higashi Hot Spring

Wild & open hot spring

Original Text

It takes about 40 minutes on foot from the port, so it's a good idea to book a rental car in advance at the inn. There is a dressing room, so change to a swimsuit there. The open-air bath that you can enter while looking at the sea and volcano is full of openness! It is worth coming to Iwo Jima for this. By the way, Sakamoto Onsen on the other side of the coast is not available at this time (April 2019) due to the typhoon pouring the gravel.

It's convenient to have a car if possible

Original Text

It is 4,5 km from the port of Iwo Jima, and it is difficult to walk. Considering the ferry time, you will go on the day you arrive on the island, but if you have a car (rental car), you can enter the morning of the day you leave. There were few people in Higashi Onsen in the morning, so it was nice to be able to relax. Rent-a-car can be rented at a guest house. Iwojima is a large island.
