2025 Tokunoshima Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)

It takes 16 hours by ferry from Kagoshima and 9.5 hours from Naha, but it's nice to enjoy the leisurely time. It's fun to explore the Kanamizaki Cycad Tunnel and banyan trees, which are said to be 300 years old, and you might even come across a butterfly in primary colors. #KagoshimaTrip

Address: About 20 minutes by car from Tokunoshima Kotobuki Airport Atmosphere/Facilities: A coast lined with rocks of strange patterns Recommended points: It's fun to take a walk and look at the unique rocks while watching where you step. Evaluation: I think this is a place where you can appreciate the wonder and splendor of natural formations. #Breathtaking views

I took this photo in the garden behind my parents' house. I wonder if it's ripe to eat? #Amami #Tokunoshima

I’m happy to share my experience to see this beautiful traditional bull fighting. In Tokunoshima city japan🇯🇵… hindi ko alam kung ano mararamdaman ko😁 nakakatakot na masaya ang falling😅 #traditional bull fighting #bull fighting in Tokunoshima island # happy trip moments

Kanamizaki 👁‍🗨, a representative sight on the eastern side of the northern part of the island From the Kanamizaki Observatory, you can see the Kanami Village and Kanami Beach, and if you go down a little, you can see the Kanamizaki Lighthouse 💡 with the ocean in the background, and the Pacific Ocean and the East China Sea at the same time! On this day, we could see Yorojima and Ukejima, which are located further south of Kakeromajima 😊 And next to the observation deck, there is a tunnel filled with cycads, so you can enjoy both at the same time 🔎 There are places in the cycad tunnel where you have to bend down to walk, and there are many large spider webs 🕸, so be careful when walking! Also, since Tokunoshima is home to snakes, be sure to watch your step ⚠️ This is a spot where you can feel the rich nature that is characteristic of Tokunoshima 📍 Visited: July 2020 #Domestic travel #Kagoshima Prefecture #Amami Islands #Tokunoshima #Remote Island #Island Trip #Remote Island Trip #Kanamizaki #Cycad #Cycad Tunnel

While driving around Tokunoshima, I saw some unfamiliar writing, and when I looked closely, I saw that it said "Watch out for black rabbits." Black rabbits are precious creatures that live only on Tokunoshima and Amami Oshima. There were also signs around town warning people to be careful of Amami black rabbits and fighting bulls in training. I drove slowly on the island. Bullfighting is popular on Tokunoshima, and apparently many people come from outside the island to buy bulls. #KagoshimaTrip
