(Translated by Google) When you come to Kozushima, the first thing you should do is say hello to this shrine. Since the priest was not there, I could not receive a stamp. That's a bit of a regret. (Original) 神津島に来たらまずはこの神社に挨拶行きましょう。 神主がいなかったので御朱印はいただけませんでした。それが少し心残りです。

(Translated by Google) A shrine dedicated to the god who is said to be the founder of the island. The approach leading to the sea was very good ⛩️ (Original) 島の開祖とされる神様がまつられた神社。海に繋がる参道がとても良かった⛩️

(Translated by Google) Kozushima's central shrine It stands right next to the port of Maehama, where the village is located, with a mountain on its back. Monoimina no Mikoto is said to be a child of Mishima Mikoto of Mishima Shrine in Izu Province. There was nothing written about the shrine's good fortune on the signboard or online, and there didn't seem to be any other shrines in the country that enshrined the same god. Even so, the bonito ritual is said to be the main ritual on Kozushima. The approach to the shrine is a long, fine stone staircase, and it is cool and covered with subtropical trees. The grounds are covered with the same white sand as the foreshore. (Original) 神津島の中心的神社 集落のある前浜の港からすぐ、１つの山を背負う形で佇む。 物忌奈命(ものいみなのみこと)は伊豆国の三嶋神社の三嶋命の子供に当たるそう。ご利益とかは神社縁起の看板にもネットにも書いてなく、同じ神様を祀る神社も全国には無さそうでした。 それでも神津島の神事の中心として、カツオ神事などが行われているそうです。 参道は長い立派な石段で、亜熱帯の木々が生い茂って涼しい。境内は前浜と同じ白い砂が敷き詰められています

(Translated by Google) This shrine is enshrined as if watching over the village and foreshore of Kozushima. There is a solemn atmosphere. In front of the shrine, a flat stone shaped like a rice cake is placed as an offering. I think this is a way of worshiping that is unique to the island. The sea seen through the torii gate is very beautiful. It felt very soothing. (Original) 神津島の村落と前浜を見守るように鎮座する神社です。厳かな空気があります。 社の前には平べったいお餅のような石が供えられてます。島特有の参拝の方法なのだと思います。 鳥居をのぞいて見る海はとても綺麗。とても癒される気分でした。

(Translated by Google) The main deities enshrined are Kotoshironushi (son of Okuninushi), the founding god of Kozushima, and Monoiina-no-Mikoto, child of Awa-no-Mikoto. The date of its establishment is unknown, but it was listed in the Shinmeicho in the 9th century as an Engishiki naisha shrine. It is revered as the island's guardian deity because it is located on a hill when viewed from Kozushima Port. (Original) 神津島創建の神であるｺﾄｼﾛﾇｼ(ｵｵｸﾆﾇｼの子神)と阿波命の子神である物忌奈命が主祭神。創建の時期は不詳だが9世紀には神名帳に記載された延喜式内社である。神津島港から見ると高台に鎮座する事から、島の守り神として敬われている。

(Translated by Google) The guardian of Kozushima, whose main deity is Monoimina no Mikoto. There is a large torii gate at the start of the slope near the Maehama Port intersection, and from there, go up the stone steps and continue along Omotesando. The trees that cover the area on both sides are said to be reminiscent of the world of Ghibli. After visiting the main shrine, turn around to the right and you will find yourself on the back approach, and when you exit through the last torii gate, you will be right next to the local museum. It's right next to Kozushima Port, so I think it's a good idea to visit the shrine first when you arrive on the island, also to pray for a safe journey. (Original) 物忌奈命(ものいみなのみこと)を主祭神とする神津島の鎮守。 前浜港の交差点近くの坂の登り口に大鳥居があり、そこから石段を上って表参道を進みましょう。両側から覆いかぶさるように茂る木々は、さながらジブリの世界のようだと評判です。 本殿へお参り後は、向かって右側へ回ると裏参道になっており、最後の鳥居を出ると郷土資料館のすぐそこです。 神津島港からすぐですので、島に到着したら旅の安全の祈願も兼ねてはじめにお参りするのがよかろうと思います。

(Translated by Google) A shrine near the port. There are some stairs, but please stop by and visit! If the season is right, it looks like they're breeding fireflies, and it's a corridor made of wood? there is. There was also a wisteria trellis. We were preparing for the festival today! (Original) 港の近くの神社。少し階段がありますが、ちょっと立ち寄って御参りしましょう！ 季節があえば、ホタルを飼育しているみたいで、木で出来た回廊？があります。藤棚もありました。 今日はお祭りの準備をしていましたよ！

(Translated by Google) This is an ancient shrine near the port. It is a place where you can relax with a quiet atmosphere. Because it is not far from the port, Why not visit the shrine while waiting for your boat to depart? It is recommended. your heart becomes beautiful (Original) 港近くの古式神社です。 静かな雰囲気で落ち着く場所です。 港からそんなに離れていないため、 船の出向前とかの待ち時間に参拝されたらいかがでしょうか。お勧めします。 心が奇麗になります

(Translated by Google) This is a shrine dedicated to the goddess who bears the name of Awa. What does it mean when the tile has a sixteen chrysanthemum pattern? (Original) 阿波の名を冠する女神さまをお祀りする神社です。 瓦が十六菊花紋という事はいったい何を意味しているのでしょうか...

(Translated by Google) The Venerable Kozushima Founder's Forest It enshrines Awa no Mikoto, the consort of Mishima Taisha Shrine, the origin of the Izu Islands, and who is said to have created Kozushima. It is a very historic shrine that is already mentioned in the Shoku Nihon Shoki written in 840 AD. Surrounded by cliffs on three sides, the area around the shrine is quiet even when the wind is strong, and a river of spring water that never dries up flows out from behind the shrine. Once you cross the river that runs through the grounds and cross the red bridge, you will find a rustic shrine building designated as a historic site of Tokyo, which is covered in white sand and is very mysterious. The villagers have a strong faith in the shrine, and there is a regular festival, but there is usually no chief priest and the shrine office is closed, so it is a bit sad that it is very quiet. (Original) 由緒正しき神津島開祖の杜 伊豆諸島の起源である三島大社の本后であり、神津島を作ったとされる阿波命を祀ります。 西暦840年の続日本書紀には既に記載があると言う大変歴史のある神社です。 三方を断崖絶壁に囲まれて風が強い時も神社の周囲は静かで、神社の裏からは枯れることのない湧水が川となって流れ出ています。 境内を流れる川を越え赤い橋を渡ると白砂が敷き詰められた先に東京都史跡に指定された素朴な社殿があり、とても神秘的です。 村民からの信仰も厚く例大祭もありますが、普段は宮司もおらず社務所もしまっており、とても静かなのが少し寂しいです。

(Translated by Google) Before visiting the shrine, we recommend heading to the Nagahama coast right in front of it. On the coast, there is an information board with information about the shrine. It is a shrine that is closely associated with the sea, and I heard that the local etiquette is to offer sand dumplings on a flat stone on the shore before worshiping. The precincts are solemn and not commercial-like, and will cleanse your soul. (Original) まず神社の参拝の前に、その目の前の長浜の海岸に足を向けるのをお勧めします。海岸には神社にまつわるいわれの案内板があります。海に関連深い神社であり、参拝の前に海岸の平べったい石の上に砂団子をお供えするのが地元での作法と聞きました。 境内は厳かで商業じみたこともなく、心が洗われます

(Translated by Google) There are several shrines on Kozushima, all of which are extremely beautiful and majestic. I have a strong faith, and there is always some kind of offering, which gives me peace of mind. (Original) いくつか神社が神津島にはありますが、どこも非常に綺麗で荘厳です。 信仰が厚く、いつも何かしらのお供えがあり、心が安らぎます。

(Translated by Google) Is there a fallen sign or a stamp rally? The stamps are dirty and the management is sloppy. However, the shrine itself had a strong presence and was good. (Original) 看板が倒れていたり、スタンプラリー？のスタンプが汚れていたりで管理はずさんなところです。 ただ、神社自体は存在感があって良かったです。

(Translated by Google) It sits quietly in a secluded place. I guess it can't be helped that the Goshuin is a stamp... In the first place, it is ggrks whether or not there is a Goshuin stamp. (Original) 人里離れた場所に静かに鎮座。 御朱印がスタンプなのは仕方ないかなと… そもそも御朱印の有無をggrks

(Translated by Google) It was a shrine that had tremendous power and made you feel close to God. My heart was cleansed. If you go to Kozushima again, this is the place you want to stop by! It was a lot of fun to take a leisurely stroll from here to the hot spring recreation center, so I highly recommend it! (Original) ものすごいパワーがあり、神様を身近に感じるような神社でした。 心が洗われました。 また神津島に行ったら立ち寄りたい場所です！ ここから温泉保養センターまでじっくり散策をするのもとても楽しかったのでオススメです♪

Camped here with my Japanese’s friends & it is very peaceful place.

One the beaches we checked out in Kozushima

(Translated by Google) A coastline with scenic beauty and rugged nature In winter, you can feel the rough waves of the Pacific Ocean and the terrifying westerly winds. It is also known as Goshiki Beach because of its many colorful and beautiful stones, but please be careful as you will be punished if you bring back stones from this beach. (Original) 風光明媚、荒涼とした大自然を感じる海岸線 冬は荒々しい太平洋の荒波と恐ろしい西風を感じます。 色とりどりの綺麗な石が多く五色浜という別名もありますが、この浜の石を持ち帰ると罰が当たるそうなので気を付けてください

(Translated by Google) Visited in February 2022. It is a beautiful coast with beautiful colored stones 🏖️ A strip of pumice washed up from the Ogasawara submarine volcano was washed ashore. (Original) 2022年2月に訪れました。 綺麗な色の石が転がる綺麗な海岸です🏖️ 小笠原海底火山から流れ着いた軽石が帯状に打ち上げられていました。

(Translated by Google) It is a coast that can be harpooned. Because it is close to the open sea and there are no wave-dissipating blocks, there are many days when the waves are high. There's a lot of ground underfoot, so if you want to play, you'll probably want to play in an area surrounded by stones. (Original) 銛突き可能な海岸です。外海に近く、消波ブロックなど無いため波が高い日多め。 足元もゴロタなので遊ぶなら石で囲ってあるエリアぐらいでしょうか。

(Translated by Google) The ultimate healing spot! Personally, I love the dawn of a full moon day! It's absolutely beautiful! And nearby is the strongest power spot Awa Mikoto Shrine, which is also the most relaxing place! This is my personal opinion (lol) Those who understand will understand! Please stop by♪ (Original) 超絶最強の癒しスポット！ 個人的には満月の日の夜明けが大好きです！ 最高に綺麗です！ そして近くには最強のパワースポット阿波命神社がありこちらも最高に癒されます！ 個人的な意見ですが(笑) わかる人にはわかります！ 是非立ち寄ってください♪

(Translated by Google) I feel nostalgic about Bhutoshi Rock and Nagahama Campsite. (Original) ブットーシ岩や長浜キャンプ場など懐かしくなりました。

It is not a hard climb but worth going as the view is spectacular and rewarding. You may need around four hours to see it all.

(Translated by Google) The highest peak of Kozushima seen from the boat bound for Tokyo. You will be overwhelmed by the completely different scenery from the foreshore side. (Original) 東京行きの船から見えた神津島最高峰。前浜側とは全く違う光景に圧倒される。

(Translated by Google) It is the highest mountain on Kozushima and last erupted in July 738. There are two trailheads: Kuroshima Exit and Hakushima Exit. This time I started with a plan to climb the mountain from Kuroshimaguchi and descend from Hakushimaguchi. About 50 minutes after the start, we arrived at the 10th station, and from there we passed through Fudo Pond and the New Tokyo 100 Views Observation Area, enjoying the view from Hairagasawa. The time required depends on the route, but it takes about 2 and a half to 3 and a half hours. (Original) 神津島最高峰の山で、最後に噴火したのは738年7月である。登山口が黒島口･白島口の二つあり 今回は黒島口から登山し白島口にて下山する計画でスタートした。開始からおよそ50分程で10合目に到着し、そこから不動池や新東京百景展望地を経由し不入(はいらず)ｶﾞ沢からの展望を堪能してきた。所要時間はルートにもよるが、2時間半から3時間半位かかる。

(Translated by Google) It's worth coming to Kozushima just to climb Mt. Tenjo (especially in the Ura Desert), but even though it's a low mountain, you'll have to climb the mountain in one go, and the route is full of stones and sand, so it's easy to get lost, so you need to be well prepared. . Also, the summit is dangerous if the wind is strong, and you need to be careful of blowing sand and lower body temperature. As a guide to the course time, it will take 30 to 60 minutes from the Kuroshima trailhead to the 10th station, and there will be some ups and downs if you go via Chiyoike from there, but the time will not change much and you will reach the back desert in about 15 minutes. reach. Another 20 to 30 minutes' walk will take you to Fudo Pond, then about 5 minutes from there will be Tenku no Oka, and about 10 minutes will take you to the top of the mountain. When you look up at Mt. Tenjou again after climbing the mountain, you will be reminded that you have climbed such a place. (Original) 天上山登山だけでも神津島に来る甲斐がありますが（特に裏砂漠）、低山とはいえ、一気に山を登り、ルートも石や砂がおおく、足を取られやすいのでしっかりとした準備が必要です。又、風が強いと山頂は危険ですし、吹き付ける砂や体温低下にも注意が必要です。 コースタイム等の目安としては黒島登山口から10合目までは30分～60分、そこから千代池を経由する場合は少しアップダウンがありますが、時間は大きく変わらず、15分ほどで裏砂漠に到達します。さらに20～30分歩くと不動池、そこから5分ほどで天空の丘、10分ほどで山頂につきます。 登山を終えた後に改めて天上山を見上げると、あんなところを登ったのかと思わされます。

(Translated by Google) It was quite a difficult climb, but once I saw the view at the top, all the fatigue disappeared. (The wind was so strong that if I wasn't caught by a rock, I would literally be blown away.) The reason I climbed to the top of this mountain is because it is a place where you can see the sunrise and sunset at the same time. I climbed it at the beginning of the year, but was it only during that time? You can see such a special sight. Despite being exposed to strong winds that I have rarely experienced in my life, the scenery I saw was spectacularly beautiful. However, the road is not always paved, so if you are not used to it, I think it would be best to ask a guide to accompany you to the summit! (Original) なかなか大変な登山でしたが、頂上の景色を見たら、その疲れも吹っ飛びました。 （風も強くて、岩に捕まっていないと、文字通り吹っ飛びそうでした） ここの頂上に登った理由は、日の出と日の入りを同時に見ることができる場所だから。 登ったのは、年始なのですが、その時期だけ？なのか、そのような特殊な光景を見ることができます。 人生でもなかなか経験できないような強風にさらされながら、見た景色は壮絶に美しかったです。 ただ、道もずっと舗装されているわけではないので、慣れていない方は、ガイドの方についてもらって一緒に登頂するのがいいのではないかと思います！

(Translated by Google) If you climb from the 8th station, you can reach the summit in about an hour. The scenery during the spring season of fresh greenery is very beautiful. (Original) 8合目から登ると1時間ほどで山頂へ行ける。春の新緑の季節の風景はとても美しい。

(Translated by Google) GW may be heavenly mountain! The weather was nice and perfect! I only went from the front desert to the back desert observation area after getting to the top, but it felt very otherworldly and gave me a mysterious feeling! The chirping of birds was also very nice. It is soothing to stop and listen quietly in the absence of sound. Ah, good Mt. Tenjo. Next time I'd like to bring more water and go around more slowly. I also wanted to go down to Hakushima! The photo is from the Ura Desert Observatory (Original) GWは天上山かもしれません！天気もよくてサイコーでした！ 上についてからの表砂漠からの裏砂漠展望地までだけでしたが、すごく異世界な感じで不思議な感覚になれました！鳥のさえずりもすごく素敵に響いていました。足を止めて音がない中で静かに耳を傾けると癒されます。 あー良かった天上山。今度はちゃんと多めに水をもってゆっくり回りたいです。 白島のほうもおりてみたかった！ 写真は裏砂漠展望地から

You can swim in the ocean here! It’s a kind of natural sea water pool.

The best beach ever

(Translated by Google) ◉Calm sea with high transparency. If you're going to Oshima in the summer, definitely check it out! If you go on a sunny day, you can enjoy the spectacular view. You can see how transparent it is just by looking at it from above, but if you can, definitely go snorkeling! You can take a peek into the beautiful world of the sea, including a variety of fish, colorful seaweed, and coral. (I uploaded an underwater video 🐠) The terrain created by lava flowing into the area is shaped like a partition, so there is little influence from the open ocean and the area is very calm, with almost no waves. However, the current can be very fast in some places, so children and people who are not good at swimming should be careful. The small children who couldn't swim by themselves seemed to be having fun catching crabs on the rocks and playing around in the shallows. The scaffolding is on a rugged rocky surface, so as everyone has said, I don't feel comfortable wearing flip-flops. Marine shoes are definitely recommended! There is a parking lot that can park several cars right near the swimming hole, but the road leading to it is quite narrow and sloped, so I don't think it would be easy to come by rental car. We took a taxi to the Toshiki campsite and walked (about 10 minutes) from there. Toshiki Campsite has fairly clean toilets. Maybe it was because it was just July, but there were no toilets at the swimming hole. (Original) ◉透明度の高い穏やかな海。夏に大島に行くならぜひ！ 天気の良い日に行けば、絶景を味わえます。 上から見ているだけで透明度の高さがわかりますが、できることならばぜひシュノーケリングを！ 様々な魚たちや色とりどりの海藻、珊瑚など、美しい海の世界を覗くことができます。 （水中の動画アップしました🐠） 溶岩が流れ込んでできた地形が仕切りのような形になっているので、外海の影響が少なく波はほぼ無いと言ってよいくらいとても穏やかです。 ただ、場所によっては流れがとても早いので、子どもや泳ぎが苦手な方は注意した方がよいと思います。 1人で泳げないような小さな子どもは、岩場でかにをつかまえたり、浅瀬でちゃぷちゃぷ遊んだり楽しそうでした。 足場はゴツゴツした岩場なので、皆さんがおっしゃる通りビーチサンダルだと不安。 マリンシューズが断然おすすめです！ 遊泳場のすぐ近くに、車数台を停められる駐車場がありますが、そこに向かうまでの道はかなり細く傾斜もあるので、レンタカーで気軽に来れる感じではないと思います。 私たちはトウシキキャンプ場までタクシーで向かい、そこから徒歩（約10分ほど）でした。 トウシキキャンプ場にはわりと綺麗めなトイレがあります。 7月入ってすぐだったからかもしれませんが、遊泳場にはトイレはありませんでした。

(Translated by Google) It was very beautiful, and although there were some waves on the day I went, I was able to dive safely inside the area surrounded by rocks! The water is highly transparent and the water is fairly deep, so it is recommended for skin diving! It's a shame that there's a lot of trash piling up on the beach, but it's not the land's fault, so please take your trash back with you! You can drive down to the bottom, but the upper road is narrow and can only accommodate a few cars. I think it would be a good idea to park at the top of the BBQ on the hill and walk a little from there.There are showers and water facilities nearby, so if you take into account changing clothes, I recommend parking at the top of the hill! (Original) とても綺麗で、自分がいった日は波がまぁまぁありましたが、岩に囲まれた内側は安全に潜れました！透明度も高く水深もまぁまぁあるのでスキンダイビングするのにおすすめ！ ちょっとゴミがいっぱい波打ち際にたまっててるのが残念ですが、この土地のせいではないので皆さんゴミはもちかえってください！ 車で下まで下れますが数台しか停めれない上道も狭いので 丘上のBBQ上の所に停めて、そこから少し歩いて向かうのがいいと思います、シャワーとか水場も結果その辺りにあるので、着替えも考慮すれば丘上に停めた方がオススメ！

(Translated by Google) The sea is so beautiful, there are so many fish swimming around, and the water is so cool! ! It's quite deep, but there are rescuers so it's safe 🦺 You can't rent it here, so it's better to buy a snorkel! Also, the swimming area is narrow and the rocks are rugged, so sandals are a must until you get to the beach. (Original) 海がめっちゃ綺麗で、魚もたくさん泳いでて水も冷たくて楽しい！！ かなり深いですが、レスキューの方もいるので安全です🦺 ここではレンタル出来ないので、シュノーケル買って行った方が良いです！ あと、泳げる範囲は狭いのと岩がゴツゴツしてるので海に行くまではサンダル必須です。

(Translated by Google) Does it look like you can swim? The coast is so bleak that you might think so, but when you dive there is a beautiful sea that will move you. As soon as September arrives, the number of people swimming decreases, but the seawater temperature remains high at around 26℃ until early October. It's not cold at all even if you swim until the first week of October, and there are showers at the campsite, so if you like snorkeling, September and October are definitely worth it. (Original) 一見泳げんのか？って思うくらい殺風景な海岸ですが潜ると感動するような美しい海が広がっています。 9月になると途端に泳ぐ人が減りますが海水温は10月上旬まで26℃前後と高いままです。 10月第一週くらいまで泳いでも全く寒くないですしシャワーもキャンプ場にあるのでシュノーケリング好きな人は9月10月も是非。

(Translated by Google) Outstanding transparency❢ We went snorkeling and there were lots of fish. If the current is fast in the back area, you can enjoy it more with fins. The only facilities are simple toilets. There are no showers or changing rooms. (Original) 抜群の透明度❢ シュノーケリングをしましたが魚はうじゃうじゃいました。 奥の場所は流れが速いときはフィンがあった方がより楽しめますよ。 設備は簡易トイレのみです。 シャワーや更衣室はありません。
