🌺 Welcome to Tokohana Island! 🌺

A tiny, tiny island surrounded by the sea—Tokohana Island.

The blue ocean, rich nature, and the salt breeze that envelops the land. And unique plants that can only be found here.

Tokohana Island is home to endemic flowers that cannot be seen on the mainland.

🌺 Of course, it's not just flowers!

Gazing at the crystal-clear sea, watching the beautiful sunset, enjoying the starry sky at night, etc...

You don't need a special itinerary.

"Let's go look at the sea for a bit." "Let's take a slow walk today."

It's an island perfect for such a carefree journey 🎶

🚢 However, one small warning!

Ferry services to Tokohana Island are quite infrequent... 😢

If you're thinking of visiting, don't forget to check the ferry schedule first ☝️

But that slight inconvenience is also part of Tokohana's charm.

There is no city-like convenience. There are no large shopping malls. When night falls, the island becomes very quiet.

In exchange, you get majestic nature and beautiful flowers. And on this island, there is a warm connection between the residents. The population is small, but that makes it very cozy 🎶

All residents look forward to your arrival! Once you visit, you'll surely fall in love. It's such a wonderful island you won't want to leave. Come visit us for a relaxing, slow stay! 🎶

🌺 Voices of the Islanders 🌺

Q. What kind of place is Tokohana Island?

Daily life on the island that you won't find in tourist guides. Here, we asked the residents of Tokohana Island about their favorite things and selling points 🎶

⸻

🗣️ "The flowers of Tokohana are the island's treasure."

Resident for 72 years • Florist

I've been looking at these flowers since I was little. They have bloomed on this island since ancient times. They are the island's treasure. The island lives thanks to these flowers.

If you find one, please take a photo to bring home. But you mustn't take the actual flower with you 😊

⸻

🗣️ "The island's specialty has to be the flowers, I suppose."

Resident for 46 years • Government Employee

Tourists often ask me, "What's the island's specialty?"

Well, it's those beautiful flowers. They bloom everywhere you walk on the island. They're truly lovely. They have a wonderful scent, too.

Just be careful not to pick them or lick the nectar on a whim.

You won't be able to go home if you do (haha).

⸻

🗣️ "There's nothing here, is there?"

Resident for 81 years • Shopkeeper

Young people call it the "island with nothing." No big stores, no movie theaters. Even if you want something, you can't buy it right away.

But you see. We have the sea. We have the mountains. The flowers bloom.

I was born here and lived here, so this is normal to me.

But when people from outside say, "It's wonderful,"... It makes me think, ah, it really is a good island.

🌺 Why Not Live on Tokohana Island? 🌺

For those who find sightseeing just a bit lacking.

I want to live while gazing at the sea. I want to feel the island's flowers close by. I want to live away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

For those people, we recommend island life on Tokohana 🏝️
