ATAGAWA TROPICAL & ALLIGATOR GARDEN

Zoo
Nature & Parks
Botanical garden & zoo with alligators & red pandas, plus a tropical greenhouse with giant lotuses.
Slide 1 of 8
Tickets will get you access to all 3 garden locations. But this location is the only one you can buy tickets at. It has the largest gift shop, cafe, and the most alligators. The gators are huge and move slow. Might scare some children?
If you are westerner used to western zoo standards and animal welfare, this place will make you very sad. Crocodiles and manatee are in cramped enclosures and obviously not healthy. On the other hand, the greenhouses are truly beautiful, the staff is very friendly, and the snacks served at the café are fun and tasty.
I expected an old, tacky zoo and thought the entrance fee of 1,800 yen was really expensive (can get a discount with JAF membership) but to my pleasant surprise, the place was quite big and well-kept. There were lots to see: alligators (a lot of them, some massive), red pandas, giant turtles, manatee, flamingoes, fish, and tropical plants were spread across 3 areas. They provide a shuttle bus service between the main area and the one with the red pandas. It wasn't crowded even on a Sunday so we could take our time to look at everything.
Great work on numerous flowers and species of plants and bananas. But they seems in a way better condition than all alligators, unhappy in very small spaces. It does not respect their needs.
🌴 - Atagawa Tropical & Aligator Garden: Alligator zoo, tropical botanical garden and botanical fruit garden by using abundant heat of hot spring. 24 types, 200 alligators and crocodiles are kept in the alligator zoo. The botanical garden comprises the lotus greenhouse (giant lotus, etc), main greenhouse (hibiscus, orchid, etc) and annex greenhouse (pineapple, banana). 💵 - Price: * Adult - (1800 yen) | (13-64). * Children - (900 yen) | (4-12). 🕒 - Hours: [8:30 - 17:00] | (Entrance by 16:30).
You get to see many crocodiles there from all around the world. The park itself is divided into 3 different areas. Other highlights included the tropical plant areas and red pandas. Unfortunately the staff didn’t allow us to enter certain sections of the park 20mins before closing time and I was unable to see the giant water lily. Definitely don’t think the ticket is worth the price. Only go if you’re really into crocodiles or you are bored out of your mind while traveling around that area.
We’re so delighted by this garden! That’s must visit once you’re in Japan, 2 h from Tokyo, right next to train station
Makes for an interesting day trip rain or shine. Lots of good snacks, banana ice cream, and interesting plants from around the world. The greenhouse almost feels like you've entered a fairytale.
Izu Animal Kingdom

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
African savanna-themed park with big cats, a petting zoo & walking safaris amid giraffes & zebras.
Slide 1 of 8
The villa I stayed in had a giant ferris wheel up on a mountain nearby. I was very curious and upon asking the hotel staff said was part of the Izu animal kingdom. With just a 5 min walk to arrive, I felt compelled to go and see what I could find. In the zoo, I was greeted many fun animals. There was a large open area where many different animals lazed about. Giraffes were walking by and asking for food. The zebra and bison were off enjoying the sun. As I walked around, I found lots of other fun enclosures like a hare, cappybara and alpaca enclosure; a birds enclosure, and a small little animal petting enclosure. The parrots in the cappybara enclosure enjoyed a good laugh when I accidently dropped my veggies for the cappybaras into the water. Lastly, as I headed down the route back to the entrance, I was greeted to a small little theme park with many a rides to play on. A very fun park to spend the day in.
I found this zoo visit to be extremely disappointing. It appears the animals are not well-fed—many of them approached visitors as if expecting food. At each enclosure, there was only a tiny portion of food available for purchase at 200–300 yen. The zoo has very few animal exhibits overall, and the entry ticket is quite expensive. They also don’t inform you at the entrance that major animals like elephants and bears are no longer in the zoo. The chimpanzee was kept in a very small, stressful-looking cage, which was upsetting to see. Overall, it felt like a complete waste of time and money. I strongly recommend visiting a public zoo instead—they usually offer larger, better-maintained spaces with a greater variety of animals.
An absolutely delightful zoo with amusement park attractions as well as a driving range and much more! As far as the animal attractions there’s a lot of interactive elements. You can feed a great many of the animals to include the more pedestrian options such as the capybara, giraffes, zebras, & more. Then there’s the more exciting options for feeding which is the white tiger, the bear, and the baboons. You’ll also find plenty of food and drink options throughout the park with both on the move options as well as a restaurant. A place to take the family and loose yourselves for the day in the environment that is the Animal Kingdom.
One of the saddest places I’ve ever been. I visited Animal Kingdom Japan while traveling with my family — I don’t like zoos, but my 3-year-old really wanted to see animals, so we went. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a deeply upsetting experience for all of us. Many animals were kept in small, barren enclosures and looked either sedated, sick, or extremely stressed. Several had visible skin problems and appeared unwell. It was hard to watch. Even my child, who was so excited to go, ended up feeling sad and confused.
Nice place. Tigers are white and you can feed them for an extra 500 yen. Lots of animals, from rabbits to elephants, owls to capybara. Appears that COVID lockdowns have had quite a big impact on the playground area and activities, don't think it was just a quiet Monday afternoon. High on a hill, not a place to easily walk to from the station, recommend car, taxi or bus to get there.
I dislike zoos at the best of times, this was no exception. Cramped concrete enclosures are not suitable places for wild animals. As a result many of the animals here looked depressed, lonely and mentally challenged. Japan continues to disappoint with its lack of animal welfare and this place is not helping that image. Avoid if you find animals in distress a depressing sight.
Izu Animal Kingdom is a family-friendly wildlife park in Higashiizu, Shizuoka Prefecture, offering an immersive experience with a variety of animals and interactive exhibits. The park features a walking safari where visitors can observe giraffes, zebras, and rhinoceroses in a savannah-like setting. Additionally, the Animal Touch Square allows guests to pet and feed small animals such as capybaras, guinea pigs, and armadillos. For those seeking more excitement, the park offers feeding experiences with white tigers, bears, and baboons for an additional fee. Amusement park attractions, including a Ferris wheel and merry-go-round, add to the fun. The park is open daily from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM (last admission at 4:00 PM) and is closed during inspections in late June and mid-December. Admission is ¥2,200 for adults and ¥1,100 for children aged 4 to junior high school students. Visitors can reach the park by a 10-minute bus ride from Izu-Inatori Station.
Great fun. This zoo is not big, but it’s fun to walk through and they offer a lots of activities. Today, we got to feed many of the animals and even touched a rhyno! Well worth the stop if you’re in the area

Izakaya restaurant
Restaurant
Slide 1 of 8
If you enjoy a real place with locals, this is it. However you need a translator, and we were fortunate to have a kind man who did all the translating for us.
(Translated by Google) There aren't many restaurants in Inatori that are open at night, so it seemed to be a hit or miss, so I did a lot of research and chose this one. I wanted a restaurant where my family could eat Kinmedai shabu-shabu, but they didn't have shabu-shabu (what kind of research did they do?), so I was a little disappointed, but the menu was very rich and there were many types of drinks. It was fun just choosing. The customer service was bright and pleasant. This may be perfect for tourists who don't want to go to a tourist-priced izakaya in the middle of town, where the food at a ryokan is delicious but the portions are so large that it's a waste to leave them behind. By the way, when we made a reservation, all the seats were occupied except for us, so it would be better to make a reservation. (Original) 稲取は夜やっている店があまりなく、当たり外れが大きそうだったので色々調べた結果こちらを選びました。 家族に金目鯛のしゃぶしゃぶが食べれる店を条件にしたのですが、見事にしゃぶしゃぶはなく(どういうリサーチをしたんだ?)、少しがっかりしましたが、メニューはとても豊富で飲み物も種類がたくさんあって選ぶだけでも楽しかったです。 接客も明るくて気持ちの良いものでした。旅館の料理は美味しいけどボリュームがありすぎて残してしまうのがもったいない、かと言って街なかの観光地価格の居酒屋には入りたくない、そんな観光客にぴったりかもしれません。 ちなみに予約していったところ、我々以外は席が埋まっていたので予約したほうがいいでしょう。
(Translated by Google) A resting place for locals. Eating at the hotel is good, but I don't like it. When I go on a trip After all, it's a friendly meal at a local restaurant. I'm a person who enjoys spending time. I was given a proper look at the sashimi type. Everything was delicious. I had so much fun that I drank too much I forgot the name of the dish I do remember that everything was delicious. The total bill for the two of us was 10,000 yen, including two bottles and lots of delicious food. It's very cost-effective. I would like to take care of you next time. Thank you very much for the meal. thank you (Original) 地元民の憩のお店。 ホテルでお食事も良いが私は 旅に行ったら やっぱり地元のお店で気さくなお料理で 楽しい時間を過ごす派です。 お刺身系を適当な見繕って頂きました。 どれも美味しかったです。 楽しくて飲み過ぎてしまったので 料理名は忘れてしまったが どれも美味しかった記憶だけは確かです。 お会計もボトル2本入れて沢山美味しい料理を頂いて2人で合計1万円でした。 めっちゃコスパ良しです。 次回もお世話になりたいと思います。 大変、ご馳走様でした。 ありがとうございました
(Translated by Google) A wonderful shop full of humanity from the owner and landlady. This is a shop I would like to visit again when I come to Inatori. I later recommended it to a friend who was visiting Inatori, and it was very well received. The atmosphere is bright and the food is delicious. We also have croquettes. (Original) 大将と女将さんの人情味あふれる素敵なお店。稲取に来た際はまた訪れたいお店です。後日、稲取を訪れた友人にもお勧めしたら大好評でした。お店の雰囲気が明るく、どれを食べても美味しい。さんがコロッケもありますよ。
(Translated by Google) Delicious sashimi and alcohol at a reasonable price, and anything that would go well as an accompaniment to alcohol! Is the sashimi so delicious because it's a port town, or because the chef is so good? We have a variety of options, from seafood that goes well with sake to kotteri that goes well with beer. Do you purchase from a Tsukemen shop in Ito? The tsukemen is also authentic and delicious. The fishmeal on it is good. As expected, the quality of the noodles may not be as good as the main store, but the atmosphere might be better if you eat here, with a variety of noodle dishes and alcohol, rather than the dark main store where you only eat ramen. When I asked for hot water for the soup, they brought it to me. It's always busy and comfortable, so it tends to be full. Will I be lucky if I get in during the busy hours? (Original) 手頃な値段で美味しいお刺身、お酒、あとは酒の肴に良さそうなものがイッパイ! お刺身の旨さは、港町だからなのか、板さんの腕が良いのか? 日本酒に合う魚介系から、ビールに合うコッテリ系まで色々揃っています。 伊東のつけ麺屋さんから仕入れている?つけ麺も本格的で旨い。載ってる魚粉が良いですね。 流石に麺の茹で具合などは本店に敵わないかもしれませんが、ラーメンだけ食べる暗い本店より、様々なツマミとお酒が揃ったコチラで食べるほうが雰囲気的には美味しく感じるかも。 ちゃんとスープ割り用のお湯も頼んだら持ってきてくれました。 いつも賑わっていて居心地も良いので、満席になりがちかも。 混みがちな時間帯だと、入れたらラッキー?
(Translated by Google) It's cheap and very delicious! Especially the sashimi was very delicious! I also have an Instagram account, so please check it out if you'd like. (Original) 安くてとっても美味しいです! とくにお刺身はとても美味しかったです! インスタもやってるみたいなのでよかったらご覧ください。
(Translated by Google) If you want to eat in Inatori, this is definitely the place! ! ! ! Full of food🙆‍♀️Full of alcohol🙆‍♀️Full of smiles🙆‍♀️ The fresh sashimi and miso pickled kinme that you can only find at "Minato" are exquisite 🤤 You can enjoy the best time surrounded by the local and homely atmosphere 🍺💗 Instagram → izuinatori_minato (Original) 稲取でご飯食べるなら絶対ココ!!!! 料理満点🙆‍♀️お酒満点🙆‍♀️笑顔満点🙆‍♀️ 「湊」ならではの新鮮なお刺身やキンメの味噌漬けは絶品🤤地元ならではのローカルさやアットホームな雰囲気に包まれて最高の時間が楽しめます🍺💗 インスタ→izuinatori_minato
(Translated by Google) The sashimi was delicious! The croquette served as an appetizer was also delicious! The menu is extensive, so I'm looking forward to going next time. (Original) お刺身が美味しかった! お通しのコロッケも美味しかったです! メニューが豊富なので次回行くのが楽しみです。

This is a museum and I visited here during the special event "tsurushi-bina".The event is going to be held around middle of February every year.You can see beautiful fancy and traditional japanese tsurushi-bina.
Lovely art. Love the culture. It's very hard and long hours of work, very beautiful
It's a marvel to see the many dolls and the museum has a lovely gift shop. No pictures can do this place justice. The museum is also located in a small park with an onsen foot bath to relax your feet.
Moms create art dolls for their daughters, and once the daughters grow up, they donate them to this museum => resulting in a beautiful collection of traditional Japanese art.
(Translated by Google) Admission fee: 500 yen. You can see the hanging decorations of hina dolls that are unique to Inatori, and you will be overwhelmed by their scale. Derivatives of modern arrangements are also on display, so you're sure to enjoy it for a long time. It seems OK to take photos of items other than those for sale. Also, a panel of Hiname Inatori, the hot spring daughter, is displayed at the very back. (Original) 入館料500円。 稲取特有の雛人形の吊るし飾りを眺めることかでき、そのスケールの大きさに圧巻されてしまいます。 現代版アレンジの派生系も展示されており、長時間楽しめること間違いないです。 撮影は販売物以外OKみたいです。 また、温泉むすめの稲取ひなめちゃんのパネルも最奥に展示されています。
(Translated by Google) Hanging dolls are decorated everywhere. It's not that big overall, but it's definitely worth seeing. I learned about it through a collaboration with Onsen Musume, but I think it's worth a visit even if you're interested in local history. By the way, there is also a footbath in the park. (Original) 吊るし雛が所狭しと飾られています。全体的にそれ程広くはありませんが、見応えは大分あります。私は温泉むすめとのコラボで知りましたが、郷土史などに興味がある方も一度足を運んでみても良いと思います。 因みに公園内には足湯もあります。
(Translated by Google) I visited on Sunday, October 12th. The many hanging Hina dolls on display were truly eye-catching. Each of the hanging ornaments has its own meaning and spirit, and you can find out more details in the pamphlet. It's small, but it was a very moving place. Smaller Hina dolls with straps are available for purchase. I received a six-gourd Hina doll as a gift, hoping for good health. (Original) 10月12日(日)に訪問しました。 つるし雛がたくさん飾られていて、目を見張ります。 つるされた飾りには、ひとつひとつの種類に意味や思いが込められていて、パンフレットで詳細を確認できます。 こじんまりとしていますが、感動をいただける場所でした。 雛飾りはストラップが付いた小さめのものが販売されています。無病息災を願って、六瓢箪のひな飾りを頂いて帰りました。

Nice place, got the ticket from 海遊亭
Good experience!
(Translated by Google) (Visited: October 2025) I participated in the tangerine picking and juice making experience. It's close to the station and offers transportation, making it highly recommended for tangerine picking. However, the explanation of the experience was somewhat lacking, and the overall system felt a bit underdeveloped. It would have been more reassuring if they'd shown me how to pick the tangerines, but I was a little confused when the staff member returned to the shop immediately after the tour. While PayPay is accepted, a deposit is required for the scissors used for picking, so you'll need to have cash ready. The juice making experience requires washing the juicer, cutting board, knife, etc. yourself, making it feel more like a cooking experience. It would have been helpful if they'd explained this point in advance. The tangerines were delicious, and I could really taste the quality of the ingredients. (Original) (訪問:2025年10月) みかん狩りとジュース作り体験を利用しました。駅から近く、送迎も行っているため、みかん狩りを体験するにはアクセスが良くおすすめできます。 ただ、体験内容の説明がやや不足しており、全体的にシステム面での洗練さはまだ発展途上に感じました。みかん狩りでは、取り方の見本を見せていただけるとより安心でしたが、案内後すぐにスタッフの方がお店へ戻られてしまい少し戸惑いました。 PayPayには対応していますが、みかん狩りに使うはさみに保証金が必要なため、現金の用意も必要です。 ジュース作り体験は、搾り器やまな板、包丁などを自分で洗う必要があり、どちらかといえばお料理体験に近い印象です。その点についても事前に説明があると助かるように思いました。 味はとてもおいしく、素材の良さを感じられました。
(Translated by Google) It was my first trip with my 0-year-old son. We visited in late November and were able to harvest lots of refreshingly sweet mandarin oranges. We were able to take some home as souvenirs. Also, since we were staying at Hamanoyu, the free shuttle bus was a nice plus. I forgot something, but they helped me out the next day even though it was their closed day, which I was very grateful for. The staff were all very warm and welcoming, and it became a wonderful family memory. Thank you so much. (Original) 0歳の息子との初旅行で伺いました 。11月後半に伺いましたが、爽やかな甘みのみかんをたくさん収穫出来ました。お土産に持って帰ることも出来ます。 また、浜の湯に宿泊していたのでシャトルバスの無料送迎があるのも嬉しいポイントでした。 忘れ物をしてしまったのですが、次の日定休日にもかかわらず対応してくださり、とてもありがたかったです。 スタッフの皆さんとてもあたたかく対応して下さり、素敵な家族の思い出になりました。 本当にありがとうございました。
(Translated by Google) It's a tourist farm where you can pick mandarin oranges, but there's also a log house-style building that sells souvenirs, a cafe that sells smoothies and juices, and if the season is nice, there's terrace seating so you can enjoy the view of the mandarin orange field and the ocean. There was a phoenix pine tree in the garden that was designated as a cultural property by Higashiizu Town. It is also a store that cooperates with displaying hanging dolls, so you can enjoy hanging dolls at that time of year. (Original) みかん狩りをやっている観光農園ですが、ログハウス風の建物では手土産物を販売してり、カフェ営業をしていてスムージーやジュースなんかもあり、季節が良ければテラス席もあるのでミカン畑と海を望みながら楽しめます。東伊豆町指定文化財指定の鳳凰の松がお庭にありました。吊るし雛の展示協力店でもあるのでその時期には吊るし雛も堪能できます。
(Translated by Google) Tangerine picking was amazing! We picked the tangerines ourselves and when we peeled them, they smelled so fresh! The fruit was fresh, juicy, and delicious! On the way back, we had fresh juice at a cafe while looking at the many tangerine trees with the ocean in the background, and it was also delicious. Thank you for lending us insect repellent for insect bites. We really appreciate your thoughtfulness! We had a wonderful wedding anniversary. (Original) みかん狩り最高でした! みかんを自分で取って、皮をむくとフレッシュなとてもいい香り!実がまたまたフレッシュでジューシーで美味しく頂きました!帰りには海をバックにたくさんのみかんの木を見ながらカフェで頂く生ジュースもとても美味しかったです。虫刺されにムヒも貸して頂きありがとうございました。お心遣いに感謝致します!最高に楽しい結婚記念日を過ごすことが出来ました。
(Translated by Google) I first used this cafe last year and this is my second time. They were very accommodating to families with children, and the staff were friendly and kind. I've only been able to go during the early mandarin orange season, but the mandarin oranges and cafe menu are delicious! The restrooms were also spacious and clean. In Izu, QR codes can sometimes be used in taxis, but I can use PayPay here, which is very helpful. I'd like to go again next year. (Original) 昨年はじめて利用させていただき、今回2回目です。 子連れにも親切にしていただき、店員さんもフレンドリーで優しいです。 早生みかんの時期しか行けてないですが、みかんもカフェメニューも美味しいです! トイレも広くて綺麗でした。 伊豆だとタクシーでもQR決済使えないことありますが、こちらPayPay使えるので、助かります。 また来年行きたいと思います。
(Translated by Google) I visited this mandarin orange orchard because they allow dogs. The staff were very polite. There's a cafe attached, so I had juice and a smoothie. The juice was made with frozen mandarins instead of ice, so it was delicious without being diluted. It seemed to be the right time of year, and there were hanging Hina dolls displayed in the back, which I was able to take a look at. I'd definitely like to visit again. (Original) 犬同伴出来るみかん園ということでお邪魔しました。 スタッフの方も丁寧でした。 カフェ併設されているので、ジュースとスムージーをいただきました。 氷ではなくミカンを凍らせたものがジュースに入れられていて、薄まることなく美味しくいただきました。 ちょうど時期だったようで、奥につるし雛が飾られていて、見学もさせていただきました。 また訪れたいところです。

Slide 1 of 8
Embrace the dawn, rise at 4 am to witness the majestic sunrise. The experience is truly priceless.
Quite clean beach with a rescue team during day time. Wave is quite high and wind is strong thus needs certain skill of swimming.
Came here in the morning. The wave is high and no lifeguard. It’s near a hotel and you can wash your foot by outdoor water tap.
Nice beach though water was quite cold a must see place in summers!!!!
(Translated by Google) About 5 minutes walk from Izu-Atagawa Station. As you go down the slope, you can see the sea. You can faintly see Oshima on the opposite shore. The waves look rough. There were a few people surfing. There is a space to park your car in front. (Original) 伊豆熱川駅から徒歩5分程度。 坂を下っていくと海が見えてきます。 対岸の大島がうっすら見えます。 波が荒い印象。 サーフィンをする方がちらほらいました。 目の前に車を駐車するスペースがあります。
(Translated by Google) [Report before the beach opens on Saturday, June 28, 2025] - Location of the free showers Free showers are installed outside the building of the "public toilets" between Atagawakan and Hotel Setas Royal. There are two in total, one on the men's side and one on the women's side. The beach is about 300m long, so no matter where you sit, the distance to the showers is close and there is no problem. - About the parking lot at the beach The guide at the T-junction of Hotel Setas Royal states "Public parking lot 260m", but as far as I walked around the area, there was no place clearly marked as "public parking lot", so I was not sure. Does it refer to the area near the "Takaiso public toilet" at the northernmost part of the beach and the parking space along the coast south of the Atagawa coastal embankment? The other parking spaces along the beach have colored contact lenses with the hotel name in front of them, so it seemed like general cars could not be parked. It seems that there will be a shortage of parking spaces when the beach opens. - Distance from the station and surrounding hotels About a 5-minute walk from Izu Atagawa Station. The way there is easy as it is downhill, but the way back is a steep uphill climb and a bit tough if you have heavy luggage. I walked from the beach to the only convenience store in Atagawa, Family Mart along National Route 135 (the route goes from Atagawa Ocean Resort to Banana Crocodile Park without using stairs) for about 15 minutes, but I was sweating even with empty hands. It is possible to walk to hotels along the national route (Atagawa Prince or Itoen, etc.), but it is difficult to walk back after playing in the sea. ・About the foot bath (Atagawa Hot Park) It is located along the river in front of Hotel Shinayoshi. There is a foot washing area, and there is a notice to wash off the sand before entering. There is no shade, so I guess almost no one enters in the summer. I think it is useful when you want to wash your feet when returning to the hotel from the beach. (Original) 【2025/6/28(土)海開き前のレポート】 ・無料シャワーの位置について 熱川館とホテルセタスロイヤルの間にある「公衆トイレ」の建物外側に無料シャワーが設置されています。男性側に1基、女性側に1基の合計2基です。長さ300mくらいのビーチなので、どこに陣取ってもシャワーまでの距離は近く問題ありません。 ・ビーチの駐車場について ホテルセタスロイヤルのT字路の案内には「一般駐車場260m」と記載されていましたが、周辺を歩いた限りでは「一般駐車場」と明示された場所は無く、良く分かりませんでした。ビーチ最北側の「高磯公衆トイレ」付近と、熱川海岸堤防より南側の海岸沿い駐車スペースを指しているのか?その他のビーチ沿いの駐車スペースは、目の前にあるホテル名のカラコンがそれぞれ立てられており、一般車は止められない感じでした。海開き時は駐車スペースが不足しそうです。 ・駅や周辺ホテルからの距離感 伊豆熱川駅からは徒歩約5分。行きは下りでラクですが、帰りは急な上り坂で荷物が重いと少しキツいです。ビーチから熱川唯一のコンビニ、国道135号沿いのファミマまで歩いたところ《熱川オーシャンリゾート→バナナワニ園前を通るルートで階段は使わず》約15分弱、手ぶらでも汗だくになり厳しかったです。国道沿いのホテル(熱川プリンスや伊東園など)まで歩くのは、行きは何とかなっても、海で遊んで疲れた帰り道は厳しいと思います。 ・足湯(熱川ほっとぱぁーく)について ホテル志なよしの前の川沿いにあります。足洗い場があり、砂を落としてから入るよう説明が掲示されていました。日陰が無いので、夏はほぼ入る人はいないのでは?ビーチからホテルに帰る際に足を洗いたいときには使えると思います。
(Translated by Google) I visited on the day the beach opens in 2025. The sea is beautiful. There are areas with waves and areas that are calm, so it's fun whether you go with friends or family. There's not much trash on the beach, maybe because it's beach opening day. The good thing about this place is that there aren't many people, but there are many lifeguards, so it feels very safe. There are also free showers and toilets. There is only one beach hut, and no changing rooms or lockers. There was also one shop that felt more like a food stall. The menu isn't very extensive. They do have rental life jackets for around 1,000 yen. It cost 300 yen to inflate the life jackets. Rather than having a lively party, I think it's best to just bring a lunch bucket and a picnic blanket and relax. (Original) 2025年海開きの当日に訪問。 海は綺麗です。 波もあるところと穏やかなところがあるので、友達と行っても家族と行っても楽しめます。 砂浜も海開きの日だからかもだけど、ゴミは目立ちません。 ここの良いところは、人が少ないけどライフセーバーの人が多くてとても安心できます。 無料のシャワー、トイレもあります。 海の家は一つある程度で、更衣室とかロッカーは無しです。 あと屋台的な感じのも1店舗ありました。 メニューは多くはないです。 貸浮輪とかはあって、1000円とかです。 浮輪の空気入れは300円でした。 わいわいというより、ランチバケットとレジャーシート持ってゆっくり過ごすのがおすすめだと思いました。
(Translated by Google) There are few sandy beaches in East Izu, with Ito, Kawana, Atagawa, and Imaihama being the only ones. Others are more famous, and this is a hidden gem, as it was originally an artificial beach made of gravel. The water is cleaner than Ito or Kawana. It's within walking distance from the station, and there's a parking lot along the beach. In season, there are parking spaces for hotel guests, beach huts, and headquarters, so there are fewer spaces, but you can still park for free. The toilets are clean, and it's nice that there's another shower (with cold water) on either side. Facing the sea, there's also a footbath at the back left, so use it if you get cold. (Original) 東伊豆では、砂のビーチが少なく伊東、川奈、熱川、今井浜。他が有名なのと、元がゴロタの人工砂浜なのもあり中々の穴場。 伊東や川奈より水が綺麗。 駅からも徒歩圏内、ビーチ沿いが駐車場でシーズンだと並びの宿泊客用や、海の家や本部が出来て少ないが無料で停めれる。 トイレも綺麗で両サイドにシャワー(水)もう一箇所あるのも有り難い。海正面にして左奥に足湯もあるので冷えたらどーぞ

A scenery place. Well, this place is known by the fascinating enshrined object (in case you don't know, it's a huge penus), but this place offers you a very good sight. The restroom just by the shrine has an observatory on top of it where you can see the sea well.
(Translated by Google) ★The object of worship is a man's thing! A sacred tree that you can't look at without feeling embarrassed★ The name itself is a bit unusual It is said to come from the phrase "to poke something with a bang" I'll leave it to your imagination as to what and where to poke it (;^_^A ▶ What kind of shrine is Dontsuku Shrine? The deity enshrined in this shrine is said to be a "Dosojin" (road god), and is said to bring good luck in matchmaking, marital harmony, and prosperity of descendants It was originally a Tengu made from a sacred tree cut down before a festival, but at one point, a young man carved it into the shape of a male genitalia as a prank, and it is said that this shape has remained as it is Making a god as a prank... I wonder if the Izu region has a generous culture? (;^_^A ▶ The main character of the Dontsuku Festival is...!? The Dontsuku Festival, held every March, is a famous festival in Inatori A giant, phallus-shaped portable shrine, the object of worship, is carried and paraded through the town accompanied by humorous chants At the climax of the festival, the Dontsuku God appears and smacks the heads of the spectators while praying, "May you be blessed with children!" This bold festival is sure to surprise first-time visitors ▶ The charm of Dontsuku Shrine The humorous Dontsuku Festival is an important traditional event that has been held since ancient times to pray for "prosperity of descendants." It has been loved by local people and is popular with tourists. The shrine itself is small, but the benefits may be great! ? [Seal stamp] You can get one at the Inatori Onsen Tourist Information Center nearby [Parking] Available (Original) ★ご神体は男性のアレ!照れずに見れない神聖木★ 名前からしてちょっと変わっている神社 由来は "ドンと突く" なのだそうです 何をどこに突くのかはご想像にお任せいたします (;^_^A ▶ どんつく神社ってどんな神社? この神社に祀られているのは「道祖神」とされる神様で、縁結びや夫婦円満、子孫繁栄のご利益があるものとなります 元々は天狗で祭典前に切り出したご神木で作られていましたが、ある頃から若衆が悪ふざけで男性器の形に削り、そのままそれが定着したといわれています 悪ふざけで神様を作るって・・ 伊豆地方はおおらかな文化なのでしょうかね? (;^_^A ▶ どんつく祭りの主役は…!? 毎年3月に開催される「どんつく祭」は、稲取の名物祭り 御神体である巨大な男根の形をした神輿が担がれ、ユーモラスな掛け声とともに町を練り歩きます 祭りのクライマックスでは、どんつく神が登場し、観客の頭をバシバシ叩きながら「子宝に恵まれますように!」と願いを込めていきます この大胆すぎるお祭り、初めて見る人はびっくりすること間違いなしだそうです ▶ どんつく神社の魅力 ユーモアたっぷりのどんつく祭は、昔から「子孫繁栄」を願う大切な伝統行事。地域の人々に愛され続け、観光客にも人気です。神社自体は小さな社ですが、そのご利益は大きいかも・・です!? 【御朱印】 この近くの稲取温泉観光案内所で頂けます 【駐車場】 あり
(Translated by Google) I visited early in the morning on August 14, 2025. I think this was my second time. It had been kept clean before, but this time the offering box was covered in dead grass and was overflowing with it. ⤵️I thought about cleaning it, but I didn't want to be seen as a money thief, so I put my offering on top of the box. ⤵️Also, there are a lot of cats, so please be careful if you go by car. 🙏Unlike adult cats, baby cats don't understand traffic rules. 🤔They move in unexpected ways😱❗ (Original) 2025.8.14の早朝に訪問しました。2回目かな?以前はキレイにされていたのですが、今回は賽銭箱が枯れ草で大盛でした。⤵️掃除しようと思いましたが賽銭泥棒と思われても嫌なので賽銭箱の上にお賽銭させてもらいました。⤵️それと猫がたくさんいますので車で行くときは気を付けてください。🙏大人の猫と違い子供の猫は交通ルールがわかりません。🤔予測と違う動きをするので😱❗
(Translated by Google) I was curious about Dontsuku Shrine, and finally got to visit it. From a distance, the impressive fishing port reminded me of a Japanese Mont Saint-Saëns. (Original) 気になっていたどんつく神社やっと行けました。 遠目から見ると「和製モンサン…!?」と思える感じの漁港が印象的でした。
(Translated by Google) Directly connected to the 8th floor side entrance of Itoen Hotel Inatori. It's convenient because you can wake up in the morning and visit the temple while you're still feeling energetic. It also serves as Inatori Hachiman Shrine, which is located at the foot of Cape Inatori. The Dontsuku Festival, which is the annual festival, is a little far away. It will be held at a special venue in a hot spring town along the coast. Before the coronavirus, it was held in early June, but After being suspended due to the spread of infection, on September 30, 2023, It has been completely restored and is now very crowded. At the Inatori Onsen Tourist Information Center, the tourist association's original Goshuinfu are shared throughout the year. The first fruit fee is 500 yen.

(Translated by Google) I went🧐 To Dontsuku Shrine! One of the three strange festivals in Izu😀 It's a festival I'd like to see at least once, if it weren't for the coronavirus🥰 It seems that the object of worship here is to chase young women around 🏃 It seems to be beneficial in many ways. I love the Izu Peninsula, which has always been a honeymoon mecca and is full of dirty jokes. (Original) 行ってきました🧐 どんつく神社へ! 伊豆の三大奇祭の1つ😀 コロナでなければ一度は見てみたい祭りですねー🥰 ここの御神体で若い女性を追いかけ回すらしいです🏃 色んな意味で御利益有りそうですね〜。 さすが昔からハネムーンのメッカだけに、下ネタ満載な伊豆半島が大好きです🌸
(Translated by Google) It's located behind the Ito En Hotel. It seems to be actually used during festivals. (Original) 伊藤園ホテルの裏側にあります。 祭りで実際に使われているようです。
(Translated by Google) Located near the Inatori Cape Lighthouse, this shrine is quite famous for its sacred object. It is said to grant good health, prosperity of descendants, and other benefits. It was quite impressive. It is close to the Itoen Hotel Inatori, so if you are staying there, you can stop by here. There are also private houses nearby, which are also a playground for cats and kittens. (Original) 稲取岬灯台そばにある、結構御神体が有名な神社。無病息災、子孫繁栄などご利益あり。インパクトもありました。そばに伊東園ホテル稲取があり、すぐなので、宿泊した際は、立ち寄るのもあり。そばには民家もあり、猫、子猫たちの遊び場にもなっていましたね。

Small Buddhist temple in Inatori. Staffs/monks were very friendly there and there's special little your where you can worship the bodhisattva Fudo MyoO
(Translated by Google) I found out about this temple by chance, but I was surprised when I went there! ️I did it. Although it was small, the garden was very clean. The Japanese oak tree also had the atmosphere of a power spot, making it a garden that I wanted to stay in forever. There was also Amabie. When I went up to the main shrine to buy a goshuin, the person who showed me around was nice enough to talk to me about various things. (Original) 偶然知った寺院でしたが、行ってみてびっくり‼️しました。こじんまりとしていましたが庭園もとてもきれいにされていました。榧の木もパワースポットの雰囲気があり、ずっといたい庭園でした。アマビエもおりました。 御朱印を購入しようと本殿に上がりましたところ、ご案内してくださった方も色々お話をしてくださり良かったです。
(Translated by Google) It's also called "Kaya Temple" 😮 As I was driving around, I saw information boards for "Kaya Temple" all over the place, so I visited it as the third temple on Hina's tour of four temples, and when I entered the precincts, I saw a big Kaya tree 😯 This was the origin of the name "Kaya Temple" 🙂 As I went to the main hall and prayed, A woman came from inside and guided me to the pitch-dark space behind the main hall (Fudou Disaster Path), and I had an experience that made me think that pitch-darkness was like this.The sense of relief I felt when I came out of pitch-darkness to a bright place was indescribable.It made me deeply appreciate the value of light.🤗 After that, I turned around the fortune teller wheel and read my luck, but unfortunately my luck was on the decline. By the way, my wife had the best luck😀 (Original) 別名「榧の寺」というんだね😮車で走っていると、あちこちに「榧の寺」の案内板が出ているので、雛の四ケ寺巡りの3番目に参拝したんだけど、境内に入ると、大きな榧の木が目に入ったんだよねぇ😯これが「榧の寺」の由来だったんだねぇ🙂本堂に行きお参りしていると、中から女性の方が来て、本堂裏の真っ暗闇の空間(不動消災の道)に案内してくれたんだけど、真っ暗闇とはこういうことかと思える体験をしたんだよねぇ😧真っ暗闇から明るい所に出た安心感は、得も言われぬ気持ちだったなぁ😀光の有り難さを、しみじみ感じさせられたよ🤗 その後、運だめしの「占い摩尼車」を廻して、運気を占ったんだけど、残念ながら運は下降気味と出ちゃったよ🥲 因みに、妻は最強運と出たんだよ😀
(Translated by Google) This is a power spot shrine located a few minutes walk from Inatori Station. In the basement, which you can enter by paying 200 yen, there is a large column called a prayer wheel with a sutra written on it. It is said that if you turn it vigorously to the right and stop it with your hand, you can get the same effect as reading a sutra, which is very convenient and valuable. Similarly, some prayer wheels had zodiac signs drawn on them, and you could tell your fortune by turning them and seeing where they stopped. I have visited many shrines and temples, but this was the first time I had seen something like this. It was a very valuable experience and I learned a lot. (Original) 稲取駅から歩いて数分のところにあるパワースポット神社です。 200円払うと入れる地下室に、マニ車と呼ばれる経文が書かれた大きな円柱があります。 右側に勢いよく回して手で止めると、経文を読んだのと同じ効果が得られるという大変便利でありがたいものだそうです。 同じように、マニ車に干支が描かれたものもあり、回して止まった位置で運勢を占うのもありました。 今まで色々な神社や仏閣を回りましたが、このようなものがあるのははじめてでした。 とても貴重な体験をでき、とてもいい勉強になりました。
(Translated by Google) Although it was a short visit, I enjoyed it. I think it's worth a visit. (^^)d (Original) 短い時間でしたが、楽しく参拝できました。 足を向けて観光する価値があると思います。(^^)d
(Translated by Google) This is a temple that is being guided as a temple of Kaya. From Izu-Inatori Station, cross the road and walk for a few minutes past the bus stop for Animal Kingdom and several restaurants, and when you see the parking lot, that's the entrance. In the precincts, there is a large symbolic Japanese oak tree and some cute Arhat statues scattered here and there. First, please go up to the main hall and pray to the principal image. If you ask the staff at the temple, they will guide you to the ``Fudou Jiai no Michi'' (¥200). Next, go to the room with a prayer wheel and Buddha statues for each zodiac sign, and you will be given an explanation on how to use the fortune-telling prayer wheel. Return to the main hall and go to the treasure hall where you can see several valuable items, including Buddhist statues donated by the Dan family, with explanations. It is a power spot in Inatori, and from the looks of it, it is a ``powerful spot'' in a sense. It's a blessing and a lot of fun, but it's worth a look. (Original) 榧の寺として案内されているお寺です。伊豆稲取駅からだと、道を渡ってアニマルキングダム行きバス停と何軒か飲食店が並ぶ辺りを過ぎるところまで数分歩いて、駐車場が見えてきたらそこが入り口です。 境内にはシンボルの榧(かや)の大木と、そこかしこにちょっと可愛らしい羅漢像が散りばめられています。 先ずは本堂に上がってご本尊にお参りしてください。お寺のスタッフに声をかけると「不動消災の道」(¥200)に案内していただけます。続いてマニ車と干支ごとの仏像のある部屋に行くと、占いマニ車の扱い方を説明いただけます。本堂に戻り、宝物館に行くと檀家寄贈の仏像など貴重な数点を解説付きで拝見できます。 稲取のパワースポットなんですが、見た目からするとある意味「パワーのあるスポット」です。 ありがたいやら楽しいやらで一見の価値はあります。
(Translated by Google) The darkness of the Fudo disaster was really dark and quite scary. For some reason, I burst into tears when I saw Fudo Myoo. Zodiac fortune telling, even if it's bad, there is salvation. I was in a bad mood, so I kept spinning the left wheel while chanting the Heart Sutra. I also prayed for the blessings. I was healed by an Arhat, I rang a Burmese bell, I was amazed by a mysterious fruit tree, and I was healed by a large hay tree. (Original) 不動消災の暗闇が、本当に闇で結構怖かったです。不動明王の姿を見たときはなぜだか涙が出ました。干支占い、悪くてもちゃんと救いがあります。私は凶だったので般若心経を唱えながら左の摩尼車を廻しまくりました。納経祈願もしました。羅漢に癒やされ、ビルマの鐘を鳴らし、謎の果樹に驚き、かやの大樹に癒やされました。
(Translated by Google) It's small but very cozy. I'm all about the kaya trees, but it's really fun with the rare Acala watering hole, the colorful Acala, the bodhisattva and Mizuko Jizo that stand just beyond the red bridge, the various arhats in the garden, and more. I went to get a special goshuin stamp for the Hosono Plateau Susuki Festival, but this was the only place they hand-wrote it. The rest was all printing and stamping. There is a place where you can pray underground, and for an admission fee of 200 yen for adults you can try your luck. However, it is really dark, so it's not suitable for people with poor eyesight or feet. Place your hands on the wall and walk through the darkness. Give it a try. (Original) こじんまりとはしているがとても居心地がよかった。 榧ばかり推しだが、珍しい不動明王の水場、カラフルな不動明王、赤い橋を渡るとおわす菩薩と水子地蔵、庭にいるイロイロな羅漢などなど、本当に楽しい。 細野高原のすすき祭限定御朱印をいただきに行ったわけだが、手書きしてくれたのはこちらだけ。あとは印刷にハンコばっかり。 こちらは地下に参拝できる場所があり、拝観料は大人200円で運試しができる。 ただし、本当に闇なので足や目が悪い人には向かない。壁に手をおいてひたすら闇を進む。お試しあれ。

Nice place. For 900yen per person you are getting towel, tea or lemonade. Stylish calm and clean place Kids under 2 years old are welcomed.Outside hot pool has beautiful view at the ocean. Stuff was very kind, and we enjoyed over there. I haven't seen sauna inside, but anyway no mistake if you choose this place.
A really really good onsen hotel with a super view angle sea view, nice breakfast and dinner set, nice staffs. The day we are going also with a super big full moon view. Absolutely we will come again and promote to everyone.

(Translated by Google) I stayed here for a family birthday party. Use Higashi Izu hometown tax accommodation coupon It was a very expensive accommodation for my family. I felt like I was getting a little bit of a discount on my hometown tax, so I decided to take the plunge and make a reservation.You'll have a room and a caretaker will come to take care of you, and at dinner and breakfast, you'll be taken to the elevator to meet you and see you off.At breakfast, the chopstick handles are arranged to suit each person. I felt that they were very considerate. One thing I was disappointed with was that there was a bad odor coming from the bathroom in the room.It was probably from the drain pipe (there was no problem as long as the door was closed). I was traveling with an elderly person (in my 80s with weak legs and needed a walker), but we were able to move around the facility smoothly and enjoy karaoke at night. The view from the room is spectacular! The hot springs were also very relaxing! (Original) 家族の誕生会で宿泊しました 東伊豆のふるさと納税宿泊券を利用 我が家的にはとても高級な宿泊費でしたが ふるさと納税で若干お得感あり、思い切って予約して正解でした お部屋付きでお世話係がつくのか夕食朝食時にエレベーターまでお出迎えお見送り、朝食時はお箸の柄が一人一人に合わせて配膳されていたり心遣いが感じられました 一つ残念だったことは、部屋の浴室から悪臭がしていたことです おそらく排水管からの臭いかと(ドアを閉めていれば問題なし) 高齢者(80代 足腰が弱く歩行器必要)との旅行でしたが、館内移動もスムーズに、夜はカラオケも楽しむことができました 部屋からの景色は絶景です! 温泉もとても気持ちが良かったです!
(Translated by Google) I stayed here without meals during the Kawazu cherry blossom season. I was given tea and sweets at check-in, but the moment I finished eating, I was shown to my room. I was surprised at how quickly they did it. They said that women could choose their yukata, but they just went straight to the room. Hmm, they shouldn't have said that they could choose. The view from the room was perfect. When I went out to the balcony to look outside, the person from the floor below came out and we bumped into each other. Even when we went inside the room, our eyes met, so it was a little awkward. The hot spring was pleasant, and I used it many times during my stay. The gulicha tea I drank after the bath was very delicious. I did not rate the food this time, as I was only staying without meals. When I checked out, I was asked to pay by tapping or inserting my card, but when I tapped, an error occurred. I was told that tapping was not possible due to the amount, so I had to insert the card. Since I followed the instructions, it bothered me a little. I am not a big fan of customer service, but I noticed some disappointing aspects from start to finish. Atagawa Onsen was deserted even though it was a Saturday, but I don't think it will recover unless the service level is reviewed. (Original) 河津桜の季節に素泊まりで利用。 チェックイン時に茶菓子が出たが、食べ終わった瞬間部屋に案内された。さすがに間髪入れなさ過ぎでびっくり。 女性は浴衣が選べるとのことだったが、そのまま部屋まで直行。うーん、だったら選べるとか言わなきゃいいのに。 部屋の眺望は文句無し。バルコニーに出て外を眺めていたら、下の階の方も外に出てきたため鉢合わせ。部屋の中に入ってもお互い目が合うので、少し気まずかった。 温泉は気持ちよく、宿泊中何度も利用させてもらった。風呂上がりに飲むぐり茶がとても美味しかった。 今回は素泊まりだったため、食事の評価はなし。 チェックアウト時もカード決済でタッチまたは差し込みでと案内されたため、タッチしたらエラーに。金額的にタッチは出来ませんので、差し込んでくださいと案内。案内に従った結果なのだから、少し気になった。 自分ではそんなに接客にうるさくない方だが、最初から最後まで残念な面が目についた。 熱川温泉は土曜日なのに寂しい状況だったが、サービスレベルを見直さないと、復活はない気がする。
(Translated by Google) I stayed here alone at the end of February. The location was good, the view was amazing, and the service was very Japanese. The only problem was that the dinner was not very tasty... In particular, the fish in the cold soup had a strong fishy smell, which was really disappointing. It was just a regular multi-course meal, and I didn't even get the red snapper that I was looking forward to... I wish I had just enjoyed the red snapper at a restaurant somewhere. (Original) 2月末に一人でここに宿泊しました。立地も良く、景色も素晴らしくて、サービスもとても日本らしかったです。唯一の問題は、夕食がとても美味しくなかったこと…。特に、生臭さの強い冷たい汁物に入っていた魚の身は本当に残念でした。ごく普通の会席料理で、楽しみにしていた金目鯛も出てきませんでした…。だったら適当にどこかのレストランで金目鯛を楽しめばよかったなと思います。
(Translated by Google) Although there is a slope from Izu-Atagawa Station, I think it is easy to use as it is within walking distance. The entire building and guest rooms were clean, and the cabin we stayed in was a good size for two people, so it didn't feel oppressive, clean, and comfortable. The ocean view is spectacular, and when it's not cold, you can spend all your time staring at the ocean from the balcony. The quality of the water in the bath was good, my skin was smooth, and both the large public bath and the open-air bath had a sense of openness. I think the amenities and supplies were sufficient. However, there is lemon water and cold guricha just outside the changing room, but there is no water server in the changing room, so it might be better to bring the provided water from your room. But the lemon water was delicious. The food was delicious overall. The seasoning of simmered dishes is gentle, and the dried daikon radish served at breakfast has a comforting taste. The freshly cooked rice was also delicious. The enthusiasm of all the staff was felt in the hospitality, and I personally appreciated the politeness and sense of distance. (Original) 伊豆熱川駅から坂道はあれど、徒歩で行ける距離は利用しやすいと思います。 建物全体も客室も清潔感があり、私たちが泊まった石榴は2人には程よい広さで圧迫感もなく、きれいで居心地よく過ごせました。オーシャンビューは圧巻で、寒くない時季はベランダでずっと海を見ていられるのではないでしょうか。 お風呂は泉質もよく、肌はつるすべに、大浴場も露天風呂も開放感がありました。アメニティや備品は充分だったと思います。ただ、脱衣所を出た先にレモン水と冷たいぐり茶がありますが、脱衣所内にウォーターサーバーがないので部屋からサービスのお水を持っていったほうがよいかも。でもレモン水は美味しかった。 お料理も全体的に美味しくいただきました。煮物系の味付けが優しく、朝食の切り干し大根はホッとする味わい。炊きたてのご飯も美味しかったです。 スタッフの皆さんの熱意がやんわりと伝わるもてなしで、私的には丁寧かつ程よい距離感がありがたかったです。

Slide 1 of 8
Tickets will get you access to all 3 garden locations. But this location is the only one you can buy tickets at. It has the largest gift shop, cafe, and the most alligators. The gators are huge and move slow. Might scare some children?
If you are westerner used to western zoo standards and animal welfare, this place will make you very sad. Crocodiles and manatee are in cramped enclosures and obviously not healthy. On the other hand, the greenhouses are truly beautiful, the staff is very friendly, and the snacks served at the café are fun and tasty.
I expected an old, tacky zoo and thought the entrance fee of 1,800 yen was really expensive (can get a discount with JAF membership) but to my pleasant surprise, the place was quite big and well-kept. There were lots to see: alligators (a lot of them, some massive), red pandas, giant turtles, manatee, flamingoes, fish, and tropical plants were spread across 3 areas. They provide a shuttle bus service between the main area and the one with the red pandas. It wasn't crowded even on a Sunday so we could take our time to look at everything.
Great work on numerous flowers and species of plants and bananas. But they seems in a way better condition than all alligators, unhappy in very small spaces. It does not respect their needs.
🌴 - Atagawa Tropical & Aligator Garden: Alligator zoo, tropical botanical garden and botanical fruit garden by using abundant heat of hot spring. 24 types, 200 alligators and crocodiles are kept in the alligator zoo. The botanical garden comprises the lotus greenhouse (giant lotus, etc), main greenhouse (hibiscus, orchid, etc) and annex greenhouse (pineapple, banana). 💵 - Price: * Adult - (1800 yen) | (13-64). * Children - (900 yen) | (4-12). 🕒 - Hours: [8:30 - 17:00] | (Entrance by 16:30).
You get to see many crocodiles there from all around the world. The park itself is divided into 3 different areas. Other highlights included the tropical plant areas and red pandas. Unfortunately the staff didn’t allow us to enter certain sections of the park 20mins before closing time and I was unable to see the giant water lily. Definitely don’t think the ticket is worth the price. Only go if you’re really into crocodiles or you are bored out of your mind while traveling around that area.
We’re so delighted by this garden! That’s must visit once you’re in Japan, 2 h from Tokyo, right next to train station
Makes for an interesting day trip rain or shine. Lots of good snacks, banana ice cream, and interesting plants from around the world. The greenhouse almost feels like you've entered a fairytale.

(Translated by Google) No matter how shy your dog is, this dog run will tickle their instincts and have fun. The tangerine field is used as a dog run, so everything is sloped. There are ups and downs, places to hide, and the dogs begin their adventure! Also, no matter what season you visit, it's always clean and the owners are friendly, making it a place that both my dog ​​and I love. There's only one rule. If you are wearing clothes, please take them off. Your dog will have more fun playing with it that way. According to the owner's wishes, the dog will be naked. But you can see the dog's wonderful smile. It's very sunny, so it's nice to have a cool time in the summer. The view is nice and you can see the sea.

(Translated by Google) I think it's the best place for dogs. I was surprised when I saw the steep slope for the first time, but I enjoyed climbing it with him and seeing how happy he was, made me want to take him there again. Also, I was impressed by the care and care taken by the owner in every part. (Non-slip roads, position of handrails, trash cans, ashtrays, etc.) (Original) 犬にとっては最高の場所だと思う。急斜面を初めて見たときは驚きでしたが、一緒に登ると楽しめたし喜んでる姿を見れて、また連れて行きたいと思いました。あと、手入れとご主人の気遣いが各所にあったのに感動です。(道の滑り止め、手すりの位置、ゴミ箱、灰皿など)
(Translated by Google) This dog run has quite a slope and can be a bit of an adventure for dogs. It's best to avoid this for children with weak legs, but my dog ​​seemed to be having fun rolling down the slope. It can get quite muddy, so we recommend preparing wet sheets. Looks like it will be closed on rainy days. It might be best to avoid visiting right after the rain. Owners should also prepare clothes and shoes that are easy to move in. (Original) かなりの傾斜でわんちゃんにとってはちょっとした冒険がてきるドッグランです。足腰の調子が悪い子は避けた方が良いですが、うちのワンコは傾斜を転がりながら楽しそうに遊んでいました。かなり泥んこになるのでウェットシートなどを準備しておくのがオススメです。 雨天は利用停止されるようです。雨上がりの直後も避けた方がいいかも。 飼い主も動きやすい服装と靴を用意しましょう。
(Translated by Google) This is a dog run that my dog ​​loves. It looks like a terraced field, and everything including the lawn is beautifully maintained. Unfortunately, it will be closed in March 2020. It's a shame that I won't be able to meet my friendly uncle who always greets me in a cheerful voice. (Original) うちの犬が大好きなドッグランです。段々畑のようになっていて、芝生も含めて全てが綺麗に手入れされています。残念ながら2020年の3月に閉業されるそうです。いつも元気な声で挨拶してくれるフレンドリーなおじちゃんにも会えなくなると思うと残念です。
(Translated by Google) Our dog, who usually loafs around at home, seems to have become wild again. It has a charm that dog runs on flat land don't have. It is well maintained and comfortable to use. Even in summer, if you go to the top, the natural air conditioner will keep you cool. (Original) 普段家でゴロゴロの我が家の犬も野生に目覚めたようです。平地のドッグランには無い魅力があります。十分に手入れされていて気持ちよく利用できます。夏でも頂上まで行けば天然のクーラー涼しいです。
(Translated by Google) The dog run on the slope that takes advantage of the natural topography is fun and varied. It is expected to close in March 2020. (Original) 自然の地形を活かした斜面のドッグランは変化に飛んでて楽しいです。 2020年3月で閉園してしまうそうです。
(Translated by Google) This is a very well-maintained dog run where all children can have a big adventure without the need for clothes or manner pants. The man in charge is also very nice. It is very unfortunate that the park will be closed in March 2020. (Original) どの子も、お洋服・マナーパンツもいらず、思い切り大冒険が出来るとても綺麗に管理されてるドッグランです。 管理されてる男性も、とても素敵です。 2020年3月で閉園してしまうのが、とても残念です。
