A Day Trip to Sakurajima Volcano in Kagoshima

You can see the towering volcano right from the Sakurajima ferry terminal!
The ferry ride takes about 20 minutes.

This time, the travel route is Yunohira Observatory - Karasujima Observatory - Lava Coast Walking Trail - Lava Park Foot Bath - Tsukiyomi Shrine.
The view from Yunohira Observatory is excellent, allowing you to quietly enjoy the Sakurajima Volcano.
You can also get a distant view of Kagoshima from above.

Since I wanted to walk the Lava Coast Walking Trail, I chose to get off at Karasujima Observatory and walk all the way to the ferry terminal, which takes about 40 minutes.
However, walking along the coast is very pleasant, with very few people, making it perfect for daydreaming.
Seeing the foot bath means you've reached the end of the trail~~ You can relax with a foot bath!
But I think it would be even more beautiful to walk around sunset.

If you plan to take a day trip to Sakurajima, it is recommended to buy a day pass that includes the ferry.
Just taking the round-trip ferry and three Sakurajima buses is worth the ticket price! You can continue to use it when you return to Kagoshima, and there are also discounts on admission to several attractions, which is very cost-effective.
