Ogasawara-shotō) are an archipelago of over 30 subtropical and tropical islands. Almost the whole area of the islands is included in the Ogasawara National Park. You can visit the marine park as well. This is an area known for . It is a tourist destination, even though the only access is via a 24 hour-long ferry ride from Tokyo. The Ogasawara Islands were added to UNESCO's list of in 2011 as animals and plants there have undergone unique evolutionary processes since these islands have never been connected with a continent, thus often dubbed as the "Galapagos of the Orient". ## Understand The Ogasawara Islands are about 1000 km away from Tokyo, which administers them. Of the more than 30 islands, only Chichijima (父島 "Father Island") and Hahajima (母島 "Mother Island") are inhabited. The Ogasawara Islands has a very diverse and rich history. The first inhabitants to live in these islands were a mix of Europeans, White Americans, Polynesians, and Kanaks. After claims by the British and USA governments. the islands were made part of Japan in 1862 and Japanese migrants were brought in. They were known as the Bonin Islands, and many fierce battles were fought in the area during , most notably at Iwo Jima (硫黄島 Iōtō). The original inhabitants of the islands were forced to take Japanese names, were viewed with suspicion and many were expelled from the islands as potential spies in 1944. After World War II, the United States took control of these strategically-important islands, returning them to Japanese sovereignty in 1968. Tourist Information Sites All these islands belong to Ogasawara Village. The village's tourism department has a [Japanese-only guide site](https://www.visitogasawara.com/) with integrated Google Translate. Chichi-jima and Haha-jima have separate tourist associations. Their Japanese-only guide sites: [Chichi-jima](https://www.ogasawaramura.com/) [Haha-jima](https://hahajima.com/) ## Get in There are no airports on the islands, so transportation is limited to the [Ogasawara Kaiun](http://www.ogasawarakaiun.co.jp/) ferry, the Ogasawara Maru, departing from , Tokyo to Chichijima. The ferry runs every three days in each direction and takes 24 hours one way in good weather, but if the sea is rough the boat travels slower and arrives late. Allow plenty of buffer for onward connecting transport, and consider buying travel insurance that can cover this. One-way tickets start from ¥29,250 for second class tickets that get you access to a shared carpeted sleeping room, while private cabins start from ¥57,670 per person. In addition, some cruise ship routes include Ogasawara as a stop. There is only one way to get to Iwo Jima (硫黄島 Iōtō) and that is through the [Military Historical Tours](http://www.miltours.com/), which have been granted exclusive rights to conduct tours of the island. The tours are only open to U.S. citizens. In an emergency, the JSDF naval base on Iwo Jima can retrieve a person needing medical treatment by helicopter and then send them on by plane, or a seaplane can be sent from the mainland (from the U.S. Marine Corps base in ). ## Get around A public bus runs around Chichijima several times daily, connecting most points of interest. Single fare ¥300. Chichijima Taxi will chauffeur you anywhere on the island via air conditioned car. Chichijima Taxi, as well as numerous other companies on the island, rent 50cc mopeds to drivers with a Japanese driver's license. Seibi Kojo rents large vans and passenger cars at reasonable prices. Bicycles can be rented at many guest houses (or used for free in some cases). Additionally, some guest house owners will lend their automobile to guests. The Hahajima-maru, operated by Izushoto Kaihatsu, runs between Chichijima and Hahajima roughly every other day, with services timed to meet the ferry to/from the mainland. The trip takes about two hours. There is no regular service to any of the other islands, although the Mukojima group to the north of Chichijima is occasionally visited by charters. sites like Iwo Jima are dangerous due to unexploded ordnance and thus off limits without a permit. ## See The most famous spot in Ogasawara is Minamijima. There, you can see a very beautiful arch over a turquoise blue lagoon. You can often see rare birds, including the ahōdori, or albatross. Another famous location is Kominato Beach. You can see a white sand beach and stunning limestone rock formations. Anijima is a nice spot. You can go fishing in Cabbage Beach. Cabbage Beach has many tropical fish. Weatherstation is a beautiful spot where you can look at a beautiful sunset! In the flat fields behind Mount Suribachi, you will find the ruins of an airfield assaulted by Allied Shermans during the Battle of Iwo Jima, plus burned out bunkers lying on hillsides or in the ground. ## Do Whale watching Scuba diving Dolphin swimming Snorkeling Sport Fishing Trekking There are many well marked and maintained trails in Ogasawara. On Chichijima, the Ōgiura-Yuhodo Trail (扇浦遊歩道) was opened in 2011. The starting point is Ogiura Beach, and the trail encounters a tunnel constructed during World War II by Japan for use on a war road. Next, the trail crosses a small river before arriving at the Renju Dam (連珠ダム). The trail follows an old road from before World War II that was used by the people to travel between their farms and town. The trail next takes us to Tengunohama (天狗の鼻) Viewpoint, where you can see Futami Bay, Ōgiura Beach and Yagiyama (山羊山). Following the trail, you arrive next at Renju Dam Viewpoint, where you can see Renju Dam and the entire valley. The trail continues up into the forest where the trees are high and wet. If you are lucky, then you may see Chichijima's endemic pigeon and endemic fruit bat. Swimming and snorkeling Boasting many beautiful beaches, Chichijima offers plenty of opportunities to get in the water. Sakaiura Beach (境浦) has a shipwreck and many beautiful fish. Also, sunset is very beautiful from Sakaiura. Aotōdai (青灯台, "blue lighthouse") is very exciting and popular with young people and locals. Sea kayaking Outrigger canoeing Water skiing and wake boarding Windsurfing Surfing Stand up paddleboarding (SUP) SUP is a popular pastime in Chichijima. During whale season, you can go whale watching on a stand up paddleboard. Also, bring snorkel equipment to enjoy beautiful underwater viewing.

Although they do not have a menu because they have a set course, their cuisine is satisfying and delicious - an islanders' favorite! Don't forget to make a reservation before you get there. Tetsuya is near Kominato Beach. It is difficult to walk there, and if you walk, it takes about 1 hour. [Buono Horizon](https://www.buonohorizon.com/) This restaurant serves Italian cuisine. They have delicious handmade pizza and pasta. If you have a date with an important person, you should go there. Gorosuke (五六助) is a “hole in the wall” shop. Gorosuke only serves bento, or boxed lunches. Gorosuke is popular because you can get a big bowl of food for a very reasonable price. Gorosuke is known for its papaya curry, which is rich, spicy, and served with a huge heap of rice. While it might be seen as ethically problematic, you can sample sea turtle in Ogasawara. Turtle meat is a traditional island food that dates back to the early 19th century when the island was first settled. It is considered a delicacy and in no way is prohibited under Japanese law. There are two dishes made with sea turtle meat. Kame sashimi (Turtle Sashimi) is raw meat served chilled with wasabi and soy sauce. Kame stew is preferred in the winter months where it is served hot in a light broth. Turtle meat dishes can be found at many restaurants, most notably at Kanza, Fukuchan and Como. Additionally, turtle products (canned turtle meat, turtle eggs) can be purchased at both of Chichijima's major grocery stores (Super Koiwai and Seikyo). Shimazushi is the traditional island sushi. It is made from the sawara fish (wahoo in English). Sawara is sliced and lightly marinated in soy sauce. Instead of using wasabi, a dab of spicy mustard is placed under the sliced sawara and then rested on a bed of sushi rice. This traditional island sushi migrated to the Ogasawara island from Hachijojima in the 19th century, when natives from Hachijojima were sent to Ogasawara to form a colony in order to strengthen Japan's claim on the Ogasawara islands. Try the local island sushi as well, it's made from katsuo tuna and served with soy sauce and pickles. ## Drink There are only two main streets in downtown Chichijima, both having several comparably priced bars. Yankee TownThis izakaya has a unique style. There is a barbecue pit that can be used by a large group of people. The owner has many interesting stories about the island.
