Jinny Beach
ジニービーチ
A hidden white-sand beach with no road access, next to John Beach. It is usually reached by sightseeing boat or sea kayak, and you can snorkel here to see coral.
Jinny Beach lies on the southwest tip of Chichijima, north of John Beach, backed by steep sea cliffs. Its white sand against the clear water makes it one of the most dreamlike beaches in the Ogasawara Islands. There's no land access. Visitors usually join a South Island and Chichijima round-island sightseeing cruise or a sea kayak tour, going ashore or snorkeling near the beach when weather and sea conditions allow. Corals, tropical fish and sea turtles are often seen. The beach has no facilities, so bring your own drinking water. Rip currents are strong, so follow the captain and guides closely and do not swim far. Tours are usually full-day trips and must be booked in advance with a travel agency in Futami Port.
