Top 10 Nature & Parks in Kagoshima, Kyushu-Okinawa

September 2, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

Take a quick ferry ride to Mount Sakurajima, a smoldering volcano, Or, if you prefer to view active volcanoes from a more comfortable distance, stop at one of the many lookout points around the city. (Siroyama Observatory is a good choice.) Finally, if there’s anything better than a foot bath after a long day of sightseeing, it’s a free foot bath after a long day of sightseeing… and you can enjoy one at Sakurajima Nagisa Foot Bath Park.

Mount Sakurajima

A 15-minute ferry ride takes you to this smoking volcano, one of the most active volcanoes in Japan.

Reviewed By 111gedk - London, United Kingdom

This is an active volcano. It's perpetually smoking and people live on the lower slopes. There's an observation platform in Kagoshima that you can get to by bus for a fantastic view of this natural wonder. It's a live volcano, of course you want to make the effort to see it!

Kagoshima City Aquarium

A fascinating array of fish, crabs, squid, octopi and other creatures from Japanese waters, including the world’s largest eel, is viewable at this impressive aquarium.

Reviewed By hokenyu - Hong Kong, China

An exceptional aquarium experience with very well-designed exhibits. A great variety of aquatic life, with an especially big tank full of many fish upon entry (and a ride up an escalator). Dolphin shows for kids and adults alike, and many education displays as well. Part of the museum has seawater intake from the bay - fascinating!
