Miyanoura Guide

Miyanoura Ferry Port

Miyanoura Port lies to the west of the island of Naoshima, and is one of two ports used to connect passengers with other areas of Japan. There are three ferry routes heading out of Miyanoura, all relatively quick crossings to other Japanese coastal resorts. Famed for its thriving art scene, Naoshima has both outdoor and indoor art shows; art museums are dotted around the south coast, showcasing all genres, and oftentimes the city will display art productions outside for passers-by. For those who prefer their museums to be filled with artefacts as opposed to art, the Yakusugi Museum is a popular attraction amongst tourists. To continue the cultural experience, head to the World Heritage Conservation Centre, especially on the occasion when shows and exhibitions are taking place. After the overload of art and culture, tourists may long for the chance to spend time in the great outdoors. For a spectacular highlight, the waterfalls are breathtaking and are worth the trip to the island alone, especially for anyone hoping for enviable photos. After the excitement and rush of the waterfall, the Yakushima Fruit Garden is a leisurely change of pace, perfect for a family day out. Active travellers will relish the chance to travel around Miyanoura; the landscape is fairly hilly and mountainous, but is easy enough to get around. There is also a bus service in operation around the island and taxis are readily available for quick and convenient transport.

What is there to do in Nishinoomote?

The combination of stunning mountainside and unique rock formations, amongst a long stretch of golden sands, make the Urada Beach such a highly regarded attraction. The difficulty doesn’t come from deciding whether to visit, it’s when to visit: in the summer the warm weather is an added bonus, whereas in the colder months the beach often resembles a deserted, tranquil haven. Kishigasaki Beach is also a popular destination; beautiful greenery surrounds the sands creating a tropical feel. If beaches aren’t particularly desirable, there is a number of historical and cultural sites. Akaogijo Culture and Traditional Museum Gessotei and the Akaogi Castle Ruins are well worth visiting; the ruins are a fascinating insight into the historical architecture belonging to the city. After a day of sightseeing or sunbathing, head to the abundance of restaurants, typically serving seafood fresh from the water as the speciality.
