Nagata Inakahama Beach

#springitinerary If you're looking for a peaceful, postcard-level gorgeous beach to totally zone out, Nagata Inakahama is it. Super chill vibes, soft golden sand, and clear blue water that basically begs you to take a nap right there on the shore. Not super crowded either, which is a win if you’re trying to escape the tourist swarm. And bonus, this place is a sea turtle nesting spot (yeah, real-life turtle babies happen here at night during summer), which makes it feel extra magical. Bring snacks though, there’s not much around in terms of food or shops. It’s more of a disconnect from the world and just be a beach bum kind of place. If you're on Yakushima and want a laid-back beach day with a sprinkle of nature magic, this one’s a no-brainer. Just don’t forget the sunscreen, that sun hits hard.
