Located at the southern tip of the Chita Peninsula in Aichi Prefecture, this coastal hot spring area is just about an hour’s drive from Nagoya, making it easily accessible and offering stunning ocean views.
The hot spring resorts are concentrated in three main areas: Utsumi, Yamami, and Toyohama, all facing Ise Bay. From seaside inns, guests can enjoy panoramic views of the bay, with particularly romantic sunsets that paint the sea in shades of red and gold.
The hot spring water here is rich in sodium and calcium chloride, offering a smooth texture and deep warmth that relaxes the body and relieves travel fatigue. Soaking in the bath while admiring the breathtaking scenery provides a rejuvenating experience for both body and soul.
After a relaxing bath, indulge in the fresh seafood. The local inns serve exquisite dishes made with freshly caught fish and shellfish, perfectly paired with delicious local sake.
