Description
About 600 meters off the coast sits this rocky little island, about four kilometers in circumference. There's an aquarium, some shrines, gardens, seafood restaurants, a yacht harbor, and a lighthouse, and overall it lets you enjoy Japan at a slower pace. It's also a good opportunity to see people let their hair down, even if it's just for a few minutes.
