A park boasting one of Japan's largest foot baths, stretching approximately 100 meters, perfect for soothing your travel fatigue.
Located by the sea, this popular park features a free-to-use foot bath. The natural hot spring, sourced from 1,000 meters underground, is rich in iron and minerals, resulting in a reddish-brown foot bath that warms the body. Boasting an impressive length of approximately 100 meters, it is one of Japan's largest foot baths. Visitors can relax and enjoy views of Kinko Bay and the majestic Sakurajima. The park is conveniently close to the Sakurajima Port Ferry Terminal, making it an ideal spot to rest your feet before boarding. If you forget to bring a towel, you can purchase one at the Sakurajima Visitor Center or Rainbow Sakurajima. The park is open all day, but the foot bath is only available until sunset.
The expansive grassy area is perfect for a leisurely picnic. A 3 km walking path connects the park to the Karasujima Observatory, offering scenic views of lava formations created by the Taisho eruption about 100 years ago.

Sakurajima Yogan Nagisa Park is a little-known seaside treasure. There are few visitors, the atmosphere is peaceful, and almost only locals go there.
It's within walking distance of the ferry terminal and has a natural hot spring foot bath with clean, warm water that is completely free to use. In the evening, take off your shoes and socks and soak your feet in the hot water while watching the orange-red sun slowly set before you. Turn your head, and you can quietly gaze at the Sakurajima volcano as it occasionally releases white smoke. Enjoying the warmth amid the cool December sea breeze is the purest and most luxurious slow-paced experience in Sakurajima. I recommend it to travelers.
Whether you're admiring the volcano views or relaxing in the foot bath, you can have a really enjoyable and fulfilling time here.
