Awaji Island is the largest island in the Seto Inland Sea. According to Japanese mythology, it was the first island of the Japanese archipelago to be born. Awaji City occupies the northern third of the island, and is just a stone's throw across a 4-km strait from the major metropolitan area.
It is close to urban areas but also filled with relaxing nature and mythology.
The area has long attracted people with its mix of traditional and modern lifestyles.
The moment you set foot on the island, you'll find yourself in a soothing space where a relaxed atmosphere prevails, the sun's warmth abounds, and the world of mythology still lives on. Each has its own story, an appeal that can only be found here, nurtured by the nature and history of Awaji.
Why not take a relaxing trip to a resort island—where time flies by—on your next day off? Once you cross the bridge, a special retreat experience awaits you.
