    Kitagawa Onsen, Higashiizu-cho, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture
    Located on the coast in Shizuoka Prefecture’s Kamo County, Higashiizu Town, this is a publicly managed open-air bath right on the edge of the ocean. Just as its catch phrase of “bathing in an open-air bath while looking at America” implies, the view is outstanding. One can enjoy bathing with the ocean at eye level, and it is a popular spot that attracts hot spring lovers from all over the country. One of the three bathtubs is exclusively for women, and it is possible to enter the bath while wearing a bath towel. From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. all of the baths are women-only.

    I spoke with the proprietors. In the past year (2018) the baths have been redone such that there is a permanent womens bath and mens bath, both opening to the sea. As such, this is not a mixed...

    河津桜の並木は川沿いにあり、河口から歩くと3キロほどになります。私が訪れたときは3月上旬でしたがまだ肌寒かったです。内風呂は少し熱く、冷えたからだをポカポカにしてくれます。露天風呂からは桜を見ることができ、風が吹くと花びらが湯舟に落ちていく様子も風情があります。休憩所も清潔でありゆっくりできました。 ビールの中瓶(サッポロ)も400円で販売しています。フロントの横にあって見にくいのですが、踊り子...

The bathhouse is situated in a community surrounded by greenery on the banks of the Nishina River. As the name suggests, guests can soak in the baths while listening to the sound of the river as they enjoy spending a few quiet hours away from the urban hustle and bustle. The bathhouse features indoor and outdoor baths fed by calcium and sodium sulfate springs. The baths are rather spacious for a town-operated hot spring bathhouse and there is also lounge, making the bathhouse a great place to stop by while sightseeing.

    中心地から仁科川をほ北東に上がっていくとあります。2km弱なので車では直ぐです。名前の通りせせらぎが聞こえる距離に川が流れていて、親しみが沸いてきます。西伊豆は、温泉地でもありますが住民の割に銭湯が多いことから、観光客も利用しているということでしょうか。狭いながら内湯と外湯とを楽しめます。休憩所もあり、寛ぐには丁度いいですが、唯一料金が…。

    西伊豆観光に行った際によった温泉です。 海岸線にあるいくつかの露天風呂が4月初めだとオープンしていないので、こちらに伺いました。まぁ銭湯と言った感じで、そんなに広く無く、たまたまほぼ貸し切りでしたが、夕方などだとちょっと厳しそうな感じです。露天は景色が見えずかなり微妙でした。 湯温はぬるく感じたので39℃以下と思います。個人的にはヌルメが好きなので、これはこれで良かったです。

    県道120号沿いにあります。飛ばしていると見落としがちになります。 まるで銭湯のような入口を入ると、小さいながらもロビーが。 雰囲気も建物の古さもいかにも地元の公衆浴場的ですが、完全禁煙なのは助かります。 脱衣所は狭いですがこの日は私たち以外にお客はいませんで貸し切り状態。 混むシーズンは避けたいですね。 浴槽は中型が一つとシンプルです。洗い場も6か所程度で多くありません。 泉質は無色透明で柔らか...

Shizuoka Areas

With the giant Pacific Ocean to the south and the great Mount Fuji to the north, Shizuoka prefecture is blessed with some of the best views the country has to offer. The white sand beaches of the Izu Peninsula are a rare find on mainland Japan, neighbored by beautiful cliffs, tumbling hills, and natural hot springs. As Japan’s largest producer of green tea, the age-old tradition of tea drinking is ubiquitous in Shizuoka, from the miles of tea fields to the old tea houses hosting traditional tea ceremonies.
