Ibusuki, Thermal beach resort in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan

The city stretches along Kagoshima Bay on the southeastern tip of Satsuma Peninsula, with Mount Kaimon rising prominently in the southwestern section.

The village of Ibusuki established its administrative structure in 1889 during the Meiji Restoration and transformed into a city through municipal reforms in 2006.

The Satsuma Denshokan Museum exhibits local pottery collections and documents the regional traditions from the Meiji period through detailed artifacts and displays.

Visitors reach Ibusuki via direct trains from Kagoshima Chuo Station, with both limited express and local services operating regularly on the Ibusuki Makurazaki Line.

The natural sand baths at Saraku Sand Bath Hall allow people to experience therapeutic sand immersion heated by underground springs to temperatures between 50 and 55 degrees.
