Saw this is a guidebook and decided we must go. So happy we did. The whole community has a great laid back surfer vibe. The gardens in the town are beautiful. Countless people came up to us to have a quick chat. Wish we had stayed a night there. The washboard is fantastic. Such a unique and interesting formation that carries on down the coast for miles. This is the easiest spot to stop and have a look at. As others have done, we timed our visit for low tide to get the best effect. Daytrip from Miyazaki-shi. The temple on the island has a very lovely garden area tucked into the centre. Very interesting. Really enjoyed our day there.

We went to Hashima Island as part of our tour and it was something that I had researched and was so looking forward to seeing. The island had a brief appearance in the James Bond movie Skyfall. Weather wise our day was perfect actually quite hot, pleasant boat trip to and from which was great for our 45min trip to the island. The island is 15km from Nagaski and was once used for coal mining with its own hospital, school and shopping centre which is incredible considering its size, it was abandoned in 1974 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You are able to get onto the island but only on the designated paths, as it wouldn't be safe to roam around on your own. I loved visiting this very interesting part of Japans history, it was fantastic. I hope my photos showed how interesting this place is.
