Himakajima: Just 90 Minutes from Nagoya!
A relaxing trip with octopus and the sea.
Himakajima is a small island located about a 10-minute ferry ride from the tip of the Chita Peninsula in Aichi Prefecture.
Known as the "Island of Octopus and Blowfish," it offers exquisite octopus dishes served whole, available year-round!
The island is compact enough to walk around entirely on foot. You can enjoy a leisurely stroll, read a book on a seaside bench, or simply relax.
Bicycle rentals are also available, making it perfect for a carefree solo trip.
It takes about 90 minutes to reach from Nagoya using Meitetsu trains and a ferry. Highly recommended for those looking to experience something out of the ordinary on a weekend!

[Aichi Prefecture: Minamichita] The cute fluffy kochia at the tourist farm Flower Plaza
Hana Hiroba Tourist Farm, located on Aichi Prefecture's Minamichita Peninsula, is a tourist spot where you can enjoy a variety of flowers thanks to the warm climate all year round.
The kochia fields in particular are gorgeous and cute, turning a vibrant red in the fall.
The grounds are large, so we recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes.

[Aichi] This is the world's greatest genius! Introducing the Toyohama Sea Bream Festival
The Toyohama Tai Festival, held every July in Minamichita-cho, Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture, is a festival to pray for safety at sea in the Toyohama area of the Chita Peninsula, and is also known as the "bizarre festival of the world" due to its uniqueness.
The young men of the town carry a giant sea bream weighing about 1 ton, made of 10-18m bamboo and wood wrapped in white cotton, and parade around the town and the sea, which is a very impressive sight and the climax of the festival.
The festival also has food stalls, and about 5,000 people participate every year, but in recent years, large-scale festivals have been canceled due to the influence of COVID-19, so it is recommended to check the website for the implementation status.

Aichi Island Stay "Himakajima"
Himakajima is a great place for a casual date or trip in Aichi.
It's only a few minutes by ferry,
so it's easy to get there on a day trip from Nagoya.
Octopus in summer, fugu in winter, and delicious raw whitebait all year round.
Lots of places to eat. You can take your time looking out at the sea while walking or cycling through the island's peaceful streets.
There's a Heidi's swing at the tip of the island.

[Aichi] Sunset at Shinojima ☀️ Kahi Park Observatory
Shinojima, a remote island in Aichi Prefecture.
I arrived at Shinojima in the evening, so I went to see the sunset😊
I asked the staff at Takamineso, where I was staying, and they told me that I could see it from the "Utahi Park Observatory" near the hotel. I walked there right away.
Unfortunately, I couldn't see it sink into the horizon, but... I was able to see a very beautiful sunset😊

Macha is a stylish cafe located at Nishiko Port, the gateway to Himakajima.
I had some time before the return boat, so I stopped by♪
Here you can enjoy dishes made with local Chita ingredients!
I immediately ordered "fried octopus" and "octopus ajillo" using octopus, a specialty of Himakajima🐙
I had it with beer...it was very delicious! ✨
If you're looking for a cafe with a stylish atmosphere on Himakajima, this is the place to go!

Himakajima is an island famous for its octopus and puffer fish ✨
At the port of Himakajima, an octopus monument greets you!
There are also many other interesting spots, such as the "Octopus Police Station" ♪
Of course, the octopus dishes were delicious 🐙
Next time, I'd like to go during the puffer fish season...!!

Strawberry picking in Chita, Aichi Prefecture
I thought I was a little late, but when I checked, I found out I still had time! Strawberry picking.
I arrived at Strawberry Village in Chita.
It's the second half of the season, so the prices are reasonable.
I went strawberry picking in a comfortable greenhouse to take a break from staying at home.
It brightened my mood and allowed me to experience spring.
If you go a little further, you'll find Minamichita Green Valley and Ebisenbei no Sato nearby, so I recommend visiting both.

Relaxing o
Relaxing on Himakajima Island.
Himakajima Island is in Aichi Prefecture.
I visit when I want to relax.
Take the Meitetsu Kawawa Line from Nagoya Station, and boats depart from the port at Kawawa Station, the last stop.
Although it is an island of octopus and pufferfish, there are also many cats, who coexist well with the islanders.
You can often see cats waiting for fish behind fishermen.
It's very soothing.
There are also many guesthouses, so staying overnight and fishing is also recommended.

[0 minutes from the port!?] Enjoy octopus rice at the "Solitary Gourmet" filming location! Himakajima "Otohime"
・Access
Nagoya Station → Meitetsu Kawawa Line "Kawa" about 50 minutes → 5 minutes walk to Kawawa Port → 20 minutes by high-speed boat to Himakajima Nishi Port 🚤
If you have a car, I recommend Shizaki Port. From Shizaki Port, it's a 10-minute high-speed boat ride. As soon as you leave the port, you'll see "Otohime" right in front of you
・Points
Otohime gets crowded at lunchtime on holidays, so it's recommended to go on weekdays or when it opens at 11:00 🐙
・Attractions
A long-established restaurant that has been in business for over 60 years. The first floor dining room has a huge fish tank that is said to be the best on the island! It was also the setting for the TV show "Kodoku no Gourmet Season 4," and the "Takomeshi Set Meal" introduced on the show is still a signature menu item that has become a "pilgrimage"!
Set meals are in the 1,000 yen range. The octopus set meal, large servings of kakiage donburi, octopus shabu-shabu, and seasonal wakame shabu-shabu are really delicious.
It's located in front of the port, so you can drink during the day until the last flight, and the sunset from there is beautiful, so it's a place you should come and watch the sunset over the sea☀️

[90 minutes from Nagoya] Shinojima, the "Shirasu Island" perfect for a weekend reset
・Access
By train: Nagoya Station → Meitetsu Kawawa Line "Kawa" (about 50 minutes) → 25 minutes by high-speed boat from Kawawa Port.
By car: Regular boats are available from Shizaki Port and Irago Port. The appeal is that you can easily get there by public transportation or by car 🚗
・Attractions
The island's specialty is raw shirasu. If you eat a bowl of shirasu caught that morning, you can directly taste the sweetness of the sea!
Only 6 km in circumference. If you ride a rental bicycle along the coast, the view changes every 15 minutes. It's compact.
The beaches on the east and west are white sand and shallow, making them perfect for swimming and SUP in the summer, and for quiet walks in the off-season.
Why not drop by on your next day off?

[1 minute walk from the harbor] A luxurious BBQ with seafood and steak! Shinojima "Dew Terrace" report
・Access
Meitetsu Kawawa Line "Kawa" Station → 5 minutes walk to Kawa Port → 25 minutes by high-speed boat to Shinojima Port. After disembarking, walk to the right with your back to the port and you will be greeted by the white wooden deck of DIEUX TERRACE in 1 minute.
For those who prefer to drive, take the car ferry from Shizaki or Irago → Parking is available, so you don't have to worry even if you have a lot of luggage.
・Attractions
Seafood delivered directly from fishermen x lean meat from a chef who has won steak contests for years. A place where you can enjoy both "sea and meat" at island prices.
Equipped with terrace seats, cafe, bar, and BBQ area.
The adjacent campsite is the only site in the Tokai area where "cars are allowed on remote islands". There are also empty-handed rentals, a dog run, and buggy experiences, making it a great place for your camping debut.
In winter, fugu and oysters, in spring, raw whitebait, swimming in the sea in summer, and starry skies in autumn... The main ingredients and activities change with each season, so you'll want to come back again and again.
It's only a 1-minute walk from the port, so you can catch the last ferry right before it leaves.
You can also use the cafe for a day trip, but we recommend the full course of "lunch beer → sunset BBQ → wave sound camping → shirasu bowl the next day"!

It's not a flashy facility, but a tourist farm with colorful flowers spread across a vast farmland
The facility is full of a handmade feel, and colorful flowers welcome you.
It was a little disappointing that the Kawazu cherry blossoms had started to fall, and it felt like the flowers in the garden were being replaced. 😅
The rapeseed flowers that spread all over the place were amazing.
The entrance fee is 700 yen.
You can take home up to 10 flowers from the garden.
Of course, pets are allowed in the park.
There is a souvenir and vegetable sales corner,
and it was super cheap 😳😳😳 with cabbage for 100 yen and 3 broccoli for 150 yen.
