Ōsakikamijima, Island town in Toyota district, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan

Located in the Seto Inland Sea between Hiroshima and Ehime prefectures, Ōsakikamijima spans across 43.24 square kilometers of coastal landscapes and rural terrain.

The establishment of Ōsakikamijima occurred on April 1, 2003, through the consolidation of three former towns: Ōsaki, Higashino, and Kinoe from Toyota District.

The town maintains traditional festivals throughout the year, while local fisheries and citrus cultivation shape the community's daily activities and customs.

Residents and visitors rely on regular ferry services connecting the island to Ōsakishimojima, Ōmishima Island, Takehara on Honshu, and Imabari on Shikoku.

The Hiroshima Global Academy, founded in 2019, implements International Baccalaureate curriculum, contributing to the island's designation as an educational center.
