Oriozako, Aoshima, Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture
Hotel Aoshima Cinq Male (Panoramic Public Bath)
A leading choice for a drive along the Nichinan coast if Pacific views and the Oni-no-Sentakuita rock formations are the priority. If you want a private outdoor bath, check weather, the four fixed booking slots and stair access first.
