From yesterday (January 22), the secondary station name of Izukyu Shimoda Station has become Shimoda Underwater Aquarium Station (^○^)
Izukyu Shimoda Station is the terminus.
What image comes to mind when you think of a terminus?
The train ends here, but
the town and its stories spread out from this point—
imagining it that way makes sightseeing in Shimoda even more exciting✨
From Izukyu Shimoda Station,
it’s about an eight-minute bus ride or a twenty-minute walk to
Shimoda Underwater Aquarium.
Set in a rich natural environment,
the aquarium floats on the sea using a natural cove, a feature unique to Shimoda.
There are many attractive programs, including experiences where you can play with dolphins🐬
Start your Shimoda sightseeing from the terminus, Izukyu Shimoda,
and enjoy a wonderful time♬

At the spectacular outdoor sauna SHIMODACCI SAUNA, where you can enjoy Shirahama’s sea right before your eyes,
we will hold a totono trial on January 11 and 12🌿✨
