Minamiizu, Administrative division in Kamo County, Japan
Minamiizu spans 110.58 square kilometers at the southern tip of Izu Peninsula, featuring a maritime climate with temperatures averaging 16.3 degrees Celsius throughout the year.
The territory transformed from 25 individual villages during the Edo period into six distinct settlements in 1889, leading to their merger into Minamiizu in July 1955.
The Akasaki Fire Festival brings the community together through traditional celebrations that include fireworks displays and local food presentations along the coastline.
The town maintains three elementary schools, two junior high schools, and one high school, while National Route 136 serves as the primary transportation connection.
The geographical position near the Kuroshio Current creates conditions for multiple natural hot springs, which integrate into the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park system.
