Concept

We want as many people as possible to know what makes Aoshima and Miyazaki a special place.

Miyazaki has nurtured us and helped us grow, with its many attractions and plentiful natural beauty.
The Aoshima Fisherman’s Beachside Hostel & Spa was established with our goal to create a place where we can promote all the great things about Aoshima, a location that has always been a top destination in Miyazaki with trendy and cutting edge attractions.
Among all of the things that makes Aoshima such a special place, we want people to know about the food, especially dishes created from locally caught fresh seafood. With the corporation from local fisherman, we are able to offer Umisachi-Hiko Shrimp (Jack-knife shrimp) an extremely rare type of deep-sea shrimp which we have centered our seafood experience around.
Another thing we want people to experience is the relaxation aspect of Aoshima, with its natural hot spring known as a hot spring of rejuvenation. It is knowen to have rejuvenating qualities because of its hot spring water with a rich mineral content that works wonders on your skin.
The last aspect is the hostel itself, with custom made bunk beds made from Obisugi (cedar wood harvested in the Obi region) from Miyazaki Prefecture. These specially made bunk beds add to the atmosphere we have created at the Aoshima Fisherman’s Beachside Hostel & Spa.
The Food
We serve fresh seafood caught in the Aoshima bay area including Umisachi-Hiko Shrimp (Jack-knife shrimp) prepared in Japanese or Italian style by our chefs which will surprise, amaze and satisfy.
