Latest Shirahama hotel reviews
Circle88 Says: This mixture of zoo and theme park is a great place to have fun especially if you have kids. There is a safari you can take that is worth while but ofcourse not like a real one. There is also a rollercoaster and some other more minor rides for children.
kevarms Says: It's divided into 4 sections:Marine World: with seals, penguins, performing dolphin and killer whale. Highlight for me was the awesome polar bear. Safari World: take a bus ride and check out the scary lions and tigers. It's even possible to rent a bike but this is limited to...
nathasha Says: ...while u are embracing each other....i would not recommend to go to a place like shirahama without someone to hold ur hand and kiss u on moments like this!!! even if its just ur favourite teddy bear, or kitty-chan ;))
and when the evening falls.....
nathasha Says: .....find a nice barbecue spot with ur honey and have nice evening picnic admiring the setting sun :)) ur belly will be screaming for food after biking those hilly roads!!!
nathasha Says: the shirahama village is a charmingly small resort, with a population of less than 20 000 people :)) almost everything is centered around the little main road, which runs right by the beach, and yes the beach is wonderful!!! just u might not be able to spot it if you go in...
nathasha Says: the peninsula is best explored by foot or by bike :)) biking around gives you a chance to see more and enjoy all the nature and everything more deeply than just by driving around with the car. you can move easily in the traffic and explore more inaccessible places like this...
nathasha Says: shirahama is a popular hot spring resort u should not miss!! if u don`t like the crowd though, avoid national holidays like obon and golden week, as its gonna be packed!!!its a lovely small peninsula in central japan, wakayama prefecture. there are great nature spots, and...
onsen - hot springs...aaahhh!!! :))
nathasha Says: yes, you have come here to bathe :)) there are several places to experience authentic japanese hot spring; try shirara-yu, murono-yu or sakino-yu. the onsen is not expensive, in case you do it publicly where men and women bathe separately. its only if you want to have the...

ogigahama youth hostel: lovely small japanese style house :))
nathasha Says: i loved this place although not in shirahama: its three train stations before in kii-tanabe. we got a very roomy private tatami room with two cosy futons nicely made up for us :)) i have stayed in a real ryokan where the room has been half the size and five times more...
on the beach: hanabi - fire works!!!
nathasha Says: i thought it would be romantic to take a walk on the beach after dark, finally it would be empty of people...i could have not been more wrong!!! day or night in the summer, the beach is likely to be full of people!! in the evening families, couples and groups of teenagers...
nathasha Says: you can rent bikes at the shirahama train station, where you can also leave ur backpack etc if you are carrying one. a mountain bike costs 2000 yen, a normal bike a little less. anyways its well worth the money and much more adventurous than going around in a car or a bus....
take care shooting the fire works!
nathasha Says: the fire works are beautiful, but remember to be careful shooting them...best would be to shoot from a spot distant enough from other people, direct the sticks toward the ocean and wear protective goggles....however u will see nobody doing that!!! so be careful walking...
boycott the adventure world....
nathasha Says: ....for the sake of the animals!!! of course a resort is not complete without an amusement park, and it might seem appealing to see the show of the killer whales, cute pandas or have a swim with dolphins, but before you do, think of the poor animals in captivity!!! for...
