Your Next Snorkeling Trip Destination is Nishiizu, Shizuoka!

Located in between Tokyo and Osaka along the Pacific coast, Shizuoka is a great destination for short trips outside busy Tokyo.

Shizuoka is famous for its beautiful scenery, onsen, good sushi/sashimi and of course Mt. Fuji. But did you know that Shizuoka is also famous as a diving trip destination for local divers?

There are two major routes to Shizuoka, you can either take a train from Tokyo station or rent a car and drive from your hotel. It’s only around 3.5 hrs drive from downtown Tokyo.

“Tago Sehama Kaisui-yokujo (Tagosehama Beach)” is a great place for snorkeling and diving in Nishiizu, a town located in in Kamo District, Shizuoka. The beach is surrounded by big rocks and because of a rather calm sea, you can expect a high visibility on good days.
