#getgoing2025 Amami Oshima, located in the southwest of Kagoshima Prefecture, is a paradise with its untouched nature and beautiful sea, which was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site in 2021. The crystal clear sea is perfect for snorkelling, diving, and cruising. You can observe humpback whales in winter and sardines swimming in front of you in summer. About 80% of the island is covered by forests and is home to a variety of organisms, including rare species. It is also one of the pleasures to enjoy the rich nature of Amami while enjoying trekking and hiking. There are direct flights to Amami Airport from Kagoshima, Haneda, Itami Airport, etc.

[Izakaya Wakitamaru] In Okinawa, porcupine fish is called "abasar", but in Amami Oshima, it is called "abas"😊 It is a type of pufferfish, so if you don't mind the many bones, you can enjoy the bouncy texture and collagen♪ In Okinawa, abasa soup is stewed with mugwort, but in Amami Oshima, it is simply dunked in the soup or fried⭐️ This is quite good😊 Abasa and luminous shells are about half the price of Naha👏 The luminous shell has a strong abalone flavor and is the best❤️ It goes well with Kagoshima's strong soy sauce. This restaurant is a little salty overall, but it has a wide selection of interesting local foods at low prices✨ The restaurant is spacious and has a counter. It is located in the middle of Yanagawa Street, the downtown area of ​​Amami Oshima. 📍Location: 3-11 Kanehisacho, Naze, Amami City, Kagoshima Prefecture 🕰️Business hours: 17:00-24:00 💰Price per person: 3000 yen #Amami Oshima #Amami Oshima gourmet #Kagoshima #0 yen trip November

[Sumiya] In Amami Oshima, "tenagaebi" is called "tanagaebi"⭐️ I love the deep-fried abas (porcupine fish) here, it's well-spiced and crispy❤️ The portions are plentiful😊 There is a counter right after you enter, and tables at the back. The staff are cheerful, and you can drink at the counter by yourself♪ 📍Location: 1st floor, 3-11 Kanehisa-cho, Naze, Amami City, Kagoshima Prefecture 🕰️Opening hours: 17:00-24:00 💰Price per person: 2500 yen #AmamiOshimaGourmet #AmamiOshima #AmamiOshimaGourmet #Kagoshima #0YenTravelNovember

Founded in 1880 [Unagi Sanshotei] Kurikara is a grilled eel cut into strips and wrapped around a skewer. It has a plump texture and a refreshing taste that is different from kabayaki♪ I came here for the kurikara, but the kabayaki broiled in the unadon was also delicious😋 It was fragrant, yet warm and soft. I found a great eel restaurant❤️ Kurikara is 460 yen per skewer, grilled liver is 350 yen, and a mini unadon is 1300 yen. There is also plenty of grilled liver❗️ There is also an eel tank. When you order rice dishes on Amami Oshima, you can get a super large portion of rice anywhere😊 📍Location: 9-13 Yanagimachi, Naze, Amami City, Kagoshima Prefecture 🕰️Business hours: 11:00-14:00, 17:00-20:30 Closed on Sundays #AmamiOshima #AmamiOshimaGourmet #Kagoshima #0yenTravelNovember

This is an izakaya where you can eat island cuisine with a 3,500 yen omakase course. I ordered island fish sashimi with vinegared miso, which was delicious.
