Ibusuki Onsen, located in Kagoshima Prefecture on Kyushu Island, Japan, is renowned for its unique sand baths, where visitors are buried in naturally heated sand by the beach. This natural therapy, called 'Sunamushi', uses the geothermal heat from hot springs (onsen) beneath the sand to soothe and heal the body. This volcanic area gifts Ibusuki with several hot springs, each offering a tranquil setting and therapeutic waters. Known as a health destination, the area attracts visitors seeking relief from muscle aches to skin ailments. The scenery around Ibusuki Onsen is striking, as it offers views of Kinko Bay and the imposing Sakurajimi volcano. The onsite facilities are typically equipped with showers and baths, ensuring a comfortable pre- and post-sand bath experience. Besides the healing sands, Ibusuki is also famous for attractions like the Flower Park Kagoshima, Satsuma Denshokan Museum, and delicious local cuisine including Satsuma-age (fried fish cakes).
