Natural and historical heritage that remains in its pristine form.
Sarushima is the only natural island in Tokyo Bay and the largest uninhabited island in the bay.The island was once a "fortress island" with gun batteries and ammunition depots that played a key role in defending Tokyo Bay, but today visitors can freely explore the island and enjoy its unique scenery, a fusion of historical heritage and pristine nature. The island is now a place where visitors can freely walk around and enjoy the unique scenery of the island, which combines the historical legacy of the island in its original form with the pristine nature.
Walking in the magnificent nature surrounded by the sea.
A number of routes exist on the island, and visitors are free to explore them at their leisure. Magnificent nature nurtured by sunshine and sea breezes extends to the entire island, where you can enjoy hiking with your family or taking a forest bath to heal your city-weary soul.
The sea is rich in expression, changing its appearance from moment to moment.
The sea of Sarushima changes its appearance from moment to moment depending on the weather and the time of day. The surrounding area is shallow and offers a variety of activities such as fishing, barbecuing, playing on the shore, and sunbathing.
Historical heritage to be experienced with the eyes and the body.
A mere five-minute walk from Sarushima Pier, you are already in the fortress area. The massive atmosphere that suddenly appears may take your breath away. Barracks, gun emplacements, and a long tunnel. The brick structures, which were built using the "French piling" method, are very rare and only a few of them still exist in Japan.
