Use the free shuttle bus from Izu-Kogen station to access this onsen!

Go when it's sunny or partly sunny 😆

Tattoos are allowed here.

You can get here as a tourist or foreign resident with the Tokyo Wide Pass. Don't forget to reserve your seats for free at the station before you get on the Limited Express Odoriko Line (not Saphir).

Get a bento too for the train! 😉 Sit on the left side of the rain when you head to the onsen for a gorgeous view of the beach towns.

Note: recently, the limited express train route hasn't been showing on Google Maps. The J app, Navitime, has been doing better at showing it. However, if you're at Tokyo Station, you can check trains at Platform 9-10 to see what lines are running.

DO NOT use the Tokaido line to come here with that pass.

I think it's well priced (1400 yen) and comes with free towels when you get in the locker room.

The view is spectacular from the outdoor bath and have yet to experience another day spa like this aside from Hottarakashi Onsen in Kofu near Mt. Fuji. That onsen requires a taxi or rental car (or to go walking up steep hills . . . ) to access though.

The onsen restaurant is nice too. I like their special parfait. 😊

Personally, it's one of the best scenic and public onsen in Japan.

This spot is definitely a recommendation for new Japan travelers.

However, I highly recommend people to get on the trains to this place at around 8 AM (earliest is best) so that your day isn't just spent at this onsen if you return to Tokyo.

If you want something extra to do on the peninsula for a day trip, then I recommend going to places like Mt. Komuro or the Ito Marinetown which are nearby.
