All Reviews of Angel Road

We took a high-speed ferry all the way to Shodoshima for the dreamy “Angel Road” and even planned an overnight stay. It definitely didn't disappoint!

The most unique thing about this place is that **you can only walk across the sandbar to the island in the middle at low tide**. At high tide, you can only admire it from afar. We happened to arrive at high tide, so although we couldn't walk on Angel Road, we were unexpectedly treated to a gorgeous sunset. The orange-red sky reflected on the water, and it was incredibly romantic.

Staying at the Shodoshima International Hotel is an added bonus. You can enjoy the sunrise and sunset over Angel Road right from your room without having to deal with the crowds.

Sometimes that's just how traveling goes. Although the tide wasn't ideal, we got to see the most beautiful sunset.

**We didn't get to walk Angel Road, but an angel gave us a sunset instead.

I went to Shodoshima by myself and only came here. I got there pretty late, around 2 or 3 p.m., and was worried about missing the ferry back.

The weather was amazing that day. I stood there by myself for three hours because I didn’t want to go anywhere else, and I really wanted to see that path appear. I didn’t walk down on it, but I absolutely loved the view from there.

In the end, I really did get to see it appear!

A lot of couples were taking pictures there, but I think older visitors should be careful because the stairs are a bit steep.

A really unique attraction. You have to wait for low tide to be able to walk across, and the moment the whole path appears feels so dreamy. Definitely worth visiting at least once.

At dusk, that’s when the angel finally shows up.

The first time I came, it was still too early and Angel Road hadn’t fully appeared. As the sun slowly dipped and the afterglow lit up the water, the angel’s moment finally arrived.

On my first visit, I didn’t check the tide schedule ahead of time, but I still got the sunset and the tide.

On my second visit, I did my homework and everything earlier in the day went smoothly, so I headed out onto Angel Road. Sunset, ocean breeze, and wonderful memories❣️

This has become the hottest pilgrimage spot for couples in Japan! 👍
