Aogashima is an awe-inspiring island located in northernmost Micronesia. It's a unique volcanic island 3.5 km in length with a maximum width of 2.5 km and incredibly steep rugged cliffs. The island is renowned for its rich history, vibrant landscape, and exotic wildlife. Aogashima is a hot spot for birdwatchers who flock to catch a glimpse of the rare Japanese Woodpigeons, Pleske's Grasshopper Warblers, Ijima's Leaf-Warblers, and Izu Thrushes.
