Kagoshima Ibusuki City

Ibusuki Onsen

An onsen resort located at the southernmost tip of the Satsuma Peninsula, famous for its sand baths, a rarity even in Japan. This bathing method uses the heat of onsen water rising along the coast to bury your body in warm sand, and is said to have strong detox and refreshing effects. Along with coastal scenery full of tropical atmosphere, you can enjoy an open, liberating bathing experience.
