Yakushima - Hirauchi Underwater Hot Springs
What is Hirauchi Kainaka Onsen?
Hiranai Kainaka Onsen is located about 1 hour and 10 minutes by bus from Miyanoura Port, getting off at the Kainaka Onsen bus stop and walking 5 minutes.
There are 4 parking lots, and it will be open all year round. The bathing fee is about Kokorozashi.
The Hirauchi Underwater Hot Springs can be accessed twice a day, only before and after low tide.
Hot springs that come out of the ocean are rare, and the time available for bathing is limited, so this is a very valuable experience.
Several hot springs seem to appear at low tide.
The spring is a simple sulfur spring.
It is effective for skin diseases, rheumatism, neuralgia, and women's diseases.
This hot spring is a mixed bathing facility. There are no changing rooms, and bathing suits are not allowed, so care and consideration must be taken when changing clothes and bathing.
The hot spring baths with a view of the ocean are sure to be a precious and memorable experience on Oku Island.
