I went to Sakushima! It's famous in Aichi Prefecture as an art island. There are lots of photo spots, so it's fun! I've always wanted to go and take photos at Ohirune House, but since summer was over, there was no line and I was able to take photos smoothly, so it was great◎ Also, Monpemaruke is a cafe I just happened to go to! The interior is made in a Showa-era style, which gets me excited◎ The desserts and drinks that came out were delicious, so I highly recommend it! I also recommend #KurokabenoShuraku and #Sakushima'sSecretBaseApollo◎ Make sure to enjoy Aichi's islands☺︎ #DomesticTravelTrip

The island is dotted with art installations, allowing visitors to enjoy seaside walks and unique art tours. In the relaxed atmosphere of the island, you can refresh yourself while experiencing an extraordinary environment. Additionally, you can also savor fresh seafood, which is another charm of the island. ◇ Access From Nishio Station, take a bus to Isshiki Port (about 25 minutes), then take a high-speed boat to Sakushima (about 20 minutes).

Sakushima, one of the three major islands of Aichi Prefecture, is also known as the Island of Art due to the various artistic forms that can be seen everywhere on the island. Sakushima belongs to Nishio City in Aichi Prefecture and is a small island in Mikawa Bay. Along with Himakajima and Shinojima, it is referred to as the 'Aichi Three Islands'. It only takes 25 minutes by boat from Aichi Prefecture. In 2001, in order to bring a turnaround to the rapidly depopulating Sakushima, the government launched a new plan that combined tradition, nature, and art, setting up multiple art installations on the island. In addition, many artists have taken up residence, giving Sakushima not only its original natural scenery but also a literary and artistic atmosphere, earning it the nickname 'Island of Art' 🎨

#Sightseeing There are some artworks on the island. You can get there from the port in Isshikicho, Nishio City. The boat runs about once every two hours, so be sure to check the time before you go.

#AichiTrip I went to Sakushima in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. To get there, take a 20-minute boat ride from Isshiki Port at Isshiki Sakana Square to Sakushima West Port. Sakushima has two ports, West Port and East Port, but if you want to go to the famous "Ohirune House" or "Kurokabe Village", use West Port. If you want to go to a guesthouse or the beach, use East Port. It's a 5-minute ferry ride from West Port to East Port. For lunch, I decided to fill my stomach before going to Sakushima, so I had a seafood bowl at Restaurant Kaisen-an at Isshiki Sakana Square. The sashimi was fresh and delicious. I relaxed until the ferry time. When I arrived at Sakushima, there was a bicycle rental shop, but I decided not to rent one because many of the roads were unpaved. I looked at the map I got at the ferry terminal and went around the photo spots. There was a line to take photos at the popular "Ohirune House," so I took this photo from a distance. On the way back, I bought some frozen eel at Isshiki Sakana Hiroba. It was plump, cheap, and very tasty, so I recommend it.

Sakushima, located in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture, is a tranquil remote island in Mikawa Bay with rich nature and traditional villages. To reach the island, take a 20-minute high-speed boat from the ferry terminal in Isshiki-cho, Nishio City. Although there are no traffic lights or convenience stores, in recent years it has attracted attention as an art island, especially from young people, and has become an Instagram-worthy spot where you can take beautiful photos with the art works scattered throughout the island. There are many tourists in the areas with art, and some pieces have to be viewed in line, but even just strolling around away from the hustle and bustle of the city is a very pleasant experience. 📌Sakushima 📌Sakushima, Isshiki-cho, Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture 📌We recommend touring the island by rental bicycle 📌Famous rating: ★★☆☆☆ #AichiTrip #777 #TourismAichiPrefecture #Aichi #Sakushima #RemoteIslandTrip #RemoteIslandTrip #RemoteIsland #NishioCity #Nishio #Sea
