kamishima Days

Driven by the sound of the waves, we journey to Kamishima, a mystical island in Toba City, Mie Prefecture. Known as the setting for Yukio Mishima's novel, The Sound of Waves, this is a sacred place where gods are said to have descended since ancient times.

The island is filled with the mysterious power of nature itself, from the miraculous beauty of its white limestone formations and the ancient rhythm of crashing waves, to the moment the morning sun rises from the sea to bathe the world in gold.

We invite you to experience the timeless moments of Kamishima, so authentic they feel like scenes pulled straight from a myth—its landscapes, the nature that breathes with the island, the daily lives of its people, its culture, and its history.
