[2025 Minamichita Attraction] Travel Guide for Shino Island (Updated May)

At the tip of Chita Peninsula in Aichi Prefecture, there is a ferry terminal called Shizaki Port, where passenger ships depart, and you can take a ferry from there to Shinojima in 10 minutes. There is a parking lot at the terminal, so it is convenient to go by car. [Shizaki Port Parking Lot] Address: Shizaki Myojinyama, Minamichita-cho, Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture Opening hours: 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM Exits are allowed all day Usage fee: Entry to 1 hour: 100 yen 20 hours to 24 hours: 2000 yen After 24 hours: 2000 yen + 100 yen per hour (2000 yen maximum per 24 hours thereafter) When you arrive at Shinojima, there is a tourist information center right in front of you, so it is recommended that you get a map of the island there to make sightseeing easier. By the way, since the main tourist attraction on the island is nature, you should also use the restroom here before touring the island! There are many restaurants on the island that mainly serve seafood. If you go to the beach, you can find lunch at guesthouses and small cafes. Seafood such as pufferfish, sea bream, whitebait, and octopus is also famous, so eating local food is one of the best parts of traveling! If you walk around the mountain side of the island, you can also visit sacred sites, so it's a good idea to bring a goshuin book! #EnjoyJapan #GoldenWeek #Aichi #ChitaPeninsula #IslandTourism #IslandHop #Sea

・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"! #0 yen trip #domestic trip #Aichi trip remote island trip
