🌊 Day Trip to Atami – Seaside & Onsen

Historic seaside resort located in Shizuoka Prefecture, known for its natural hot springs, close proximity to Tokyo (about 45 minutes by shinkansen), and retro charm. Atami peaked in popularity in the 1960s and has been making a comeback thanks to its beaches, ocean-view onsen, museums, and seasonal events like fireworks over the bay. You’ll also find local product markets and quaint shopping streets.

Price: Free access to the city. Activities such as museums or baths are individually priced
Touristy? Very popular among Japanese tourists, but still relatively under the radar for international visitors outside the summer season
