Get off the train at Ina Azusa Staion.
Go over Basara pass.
After Basara Tunnel, you start downhill.
Nishina fishery Harbour. A quiet inlet.
Sawada-kōen Rotemburo is over there. Before going up, you need to pay 500 yen to a gentleman in the parking hut.
I climbed the cliff with Brompton and finally got a view from the top. From the lefr, Takashima (Tall island), Nakanoshima (Mid island), and Zoshima (Elephant island).
You can enjoy a wonderful view of West Izu. Onsen is excellent. I need to come back again.
