Umiakari, Himi, Toyama Prefecture

Umiakari Main Building Day-Use Bath

A half-day option for visitors who want an inn's sea-view bath and a meal. For a low-cost soak alone, Himi Onsenkyo Sōyu or Isonamikaze is a better fit.

Water handling
The inn explicitly describes the main building's panoramic bath as using 100% natural spring water. The adjacent Shio-no-Ka-tei annex has been closed long-term since 29 August 2026 after disaster damage; its older source-flowing description is not treated as a current day-use product. The main building's current pages do not give full bath-by-bath details for water addition, heating, circulation and disinfection, so the main bath is not described as entirely source-flowing.

Bathing indications

The inn lists general and spring-type bathing indications for the two Iwaido springs, including neuralgia, muscle and joint pain, sensitivity to cold, fatigue and cuts. These are general hot-spring indications, not medical promises.

The main building's panoramic bath is described as natural spring water. Full treatment conditions for each pool are not published; the closed annex is not treated as a current day-use option.

The former ¥660 day-use bath at the Shio-no-Ka-tei annex is not currently available. Main-building day-use meal-and-bath plans start around ¥3,740 per person, plus ¥150 bathing tax; availability, dates and booking deadlines vary. The free JR Himi Station shuttle is for overnight guests and should not be assumed for day visitors.
