The Nihon Shoki, one of the first literature cites Japanese onsen still present in Shirahama. The most striking is certainly a Sakina-yu onsen pool built on a promontory and surrounded by the waters of the Pacific.
Following the advice of my Lonely Planet I go in the morning to avoid crowds. In reality today there is no one not even on the beach, is Tuesday, and many Japanese still work. Finally, the stretch of white sand shows in its beauty in contrast to the crystal blue sea of \u200b\u200bcalm. Placed the umbrella on the front row to not lose the experience I set priorities for Sakina -yu.
L ' onsen is located a few kilometers from the beach and the promenade is nice. On the way there are other hot springs as Shirara -yu, at the very end of the bay and Murono-yu, down the road, offering a warm foot bath between rocks and plants resting on wooden benches in the shade of a gazebo .
All 'entry dell'onsen where there is a machine make the ticket (300 yen), then men and women enter into separate segments. Lockers there are more than a tent and a canopy of bamboo protects this area.
There are four tanks, the first is square in shape, shadow, perhaps because its water is scalding. Along a staircase of white stone are the other three pools of sulphurous water, as you get closer to the sea are a little less hot, the latter is almost as warm ocean water with the tide crosses the coral reefs and covers it ...
What about the feeling of freedom is extreme, starmene lying in the hot, naked before the eyes with only the sea is priceless even if the sun beats down.
The enchantment did not last long, get a group of girls noisy trying to spy on their boyfriends in men. Now he's really too hot, I would like to take a dip in the sea but I do not have shoes to cross the reef, I decided to return to the beach, I will cool down there.
