Island

Enoshima is a tied island connected to the mainland via a sandbar. Known for its picturesque scenery since ancient times, the island is also home to Enoshima-jinja Shrine and numerous other historic Shinto shrines. Sightseeing spots have continued to accrue on the island over time, including the Samuel Cocking Garden as well as a stone monument dedicated to the 1964 Olympics. The Enoshima Sea Candle lighthouse, which is lit up beautifully at night, is a more recent addition. In times past and today, Enoshima remains a popular tourist destination visited by countless travelers.

Reviewed:2018/12/01 More interesting than I thought

Good for a half day walk if you can't spare the time. Your first stop after crossing the bridge is Nakamise Enoshima which is lined with shops and street food. A must try is of course the octopus...

Reviewed:2018/11/25 Great relaxed place

We caught a train from Shinjuku which took about an hour. Was well worth it to get out of the busy city. Lots of variety of seafood to eat, and things to see. Only really half a day on the island...
