Nagasaki Kawatana Town

Kawatana Osaki Onsen Shiosai no Yu is a day-use hot spring facility on the Osaki Peninsula in Kawatana Town, Higashisonogi District, Nagasaki Prefecture. Its biggest attraction is the spectacular location overlooking the calm waters of Omura Bay, with sea and distant mountain views visible from the open-air baths and the cold plunge bath. The source spring, Osaki Onsen, is a sodium chloride and bicarbonate spring that combines the heat-retaining effects of salt with the skin-beautifying properties of bicarbonate. Both men's and women's bathing areas have a dry sauna and a cold plunge bath, allowing alternating hot-and-cold bathing. The facility also features a walking pool, a complimentary foot bath, private family baths, a dining area, and massage services, making it a health-focused bathing hub.

Hot Spring & Bath Information

Osaki Onsen

TypeNatural Hot Spring

The source spring is called Osaki Onsen. The water quality is sodium chloride and bicarbonate spring, classified as low osmotic pressure, weakly alkaline, and high temperature. Source temperature 56°C, pH 8.0, pumped at 380 liters per minute. The salt provides heat-retaining properties that create a warming bath and, through its antiseptic effects, benefits for minor wounds, while the bicarbonate content contributes to skin-beautifying effects, combining the advantages of both spring types. These qualities can be enjoyed in the open-air baths overlooking Omura Bay and the spacious main bathing pool. Private family baths are provided with continuously flowing source water. The spring is also effective for chronic digestive disorders, sensitivity to cold, chronic skin diseases, and other conditions.

Walking pool

TypeSpecialty Bath

It is also ideal for rehabilitation and moderate exercise, and many local users visit regularly for health promotion. You can condition your body and mind with minimal strain while enjoying the minerals from the hot spring.
