Toshima Camellia Island

利島椿の島

Tokyo · Kanto

Toshima is a steep volcanic island covered with camellia trees and fishing village lanes. In season, the slopes turn glossy green and the island feels almost untouched by mass tourism.

Why it's hidden

Ferries usually promote larger Izu islands, leaving Toshima to repeat visitors and island specialists.
