Hi, I’m Tabi!

Explore mountain scenery and historic facilities as separate Etajima stops. Allow for travel within the islands and check ferry services and return transport.

This guide covers places within Etajima, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Mount Furutaka

古鷹山

This mountain is featured in the city’s guide. The photograph from the 2010s includes school facilities in the foreground and does not imply permission to enter them. Distinguish hiking routes from facility grounds and avoid routes beyond your ability.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Former Naval Academy visitor area

旧海軍兵学校の見学

The city introduces these historic facilities, which remain in active use. Check visitor procedures, identification requirements and photography and entry restrictions first. This is not an invitation to walk freely around the grounds.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The city’s official tourism guide lists oysters and citrus as local products. Check seasons and preparation with each shop, including whether oysters are suitable for raw consumption and any allergenic ingredients.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
