Misaki no Yu Shakotan

岬の湯しゃこたん

Hokkaido

A hilltop hot-spring bathhouse perched roughly midway between Cape Kamui and Cape Shakotan, with an open-air bath overlooking a wide panorama of the Shakotan Blue coastline.

Why we picked it

It's a working day-use onsen with no big-brand marketing, patronized mostly by divers and locals cooling off after a day on the peninsula's beaches.
