Lovers’ Swing (Himakajima Island)

Himakajima Island floats in Mikawa Bay and has a circumference of Approx. 5.5 km, with the entire island designated as part of Mikawa Bay Quasi-National Park. Climb the stairs leading up from Sunrise Beach near East Port, and you’ll find the Lovers’ Swing facing the sea. A log seat is suspended by ropes from a large pine tree, and it is wide enough for two adults to sit side by side. It is also said that if a couple rides it together, they will find happiness.
