💡 Tips for Visitors

The island is easily accessible by train from Miyazaki City (Aoshima Station on the JR Nichinan Line, about 25 minutes). Visit during low tide to see the Devil's Washboard rock formations at their best, and bring cash as many facilities don't accept cards. English signage is limited, so consider downloading a translation app or picking up a tourist map at Miyazaki Station before your visit.
