Hatsushima Island
初島
A small island about 30 minutes by boat from Atami Port. Highlights include a loop trail, an Asian-style garden resort, and seafood restaurants by the fishing harbor.
Hatsushima lies in Sagami Bay, about 10 kilometers southeast of Atami. It has a circumference of about 4 kilometers and is the only inhabited island in Shizuoka Prefecture. A high-speed boat from Atami Port reaches the island in about 30 minutes. Beside the pier, a row of more than ten fishermen's restaurants serves fresh fish and shellfish, including sea bream chazuke. The island's resort has an Asian-style garden, hammocks, and outdoor adventure facilities. The loop trail takes about an hour, and you can climb the Hatsushima Lighthouse for a view. It suits a half-day trip. Ferries may be cancelled in rough weather.
