A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
垂水市
On the western Osumi Peninsula, Tarumizu offers Kinko Bay views and seasonal ginkgo groves. Yellow foliage usually peaks from late November to early December; distinguish that season from an October visit.
This guide covers places within Tarumizu, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
垂水千本イチョウ
The photograph shows the B-block ginkgo path in December 2011. Peak color is usually late November to early December and varies by year. This is privately owned land opened to visitors; check access arrangements and respect the owners’ rules.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
02A first-visit stop
道の駅たるみず 湯っ足り館
This coastal rest stop is at Ushine Fumoto. The 2024 photograph looks from here toward Shin-jima in Kinko Bay; it does not present the island itself as a destination within Tarumizu. Distinguish this stop from Tarumizu Hamabira farther south.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
02 · A LITTLE BITE
Look for Umi no Okan, Tarumizu’s farmed greater amberjack, also featured at the city fishery cooperative’s restaurant. Menus and business hours can change, so check before visiting.
