This picturesque island is called Niijima island and it is part of Tokyo’s 11 islands. In fact, I just learned that Tokyo prefecture includes 219 small islands located in the Pacific oarsman, containing many unspoiled, natural environments. Among these, 11 are inhabited islands and are onsen (hot springs) or beach resorts. They are known for white, sandy beaches and blue waters. They are easily reachable from Tokyo, by large ships, high-speed ferry jets, or even by plane.
