Aichi Minami Chita Onsen

Minami-Chita, at the very tip of the Chita Peninsula in western Aichi Prefecture, is the southernmost community in Aichi Prefecture and one of the most popular coastal resort destinations for Nagoya's residents, its warm climate, white sandy beaches, and excellent Pacific fishing creating a resort atmosphere at the peninsula's scenic apex overlooking the convergence of Ise Bay and Mikawa Bay. Aichi Minami Chita Onsen draws on chloride-rich coastal thermal waters from the marine geological formations of the Chita Peninsula tip facing the open Pacific entrance to Ise Bay, offering warming maritime baths in a peninsular resort community whose beaches, fresh Pacific seafood, and lighthouse panoramas create an appealing coastal getaway for Nagoya metropolitan visitors. The Mihama Himaka Island ferry crossing to the unspoiled island fishing community, the Chita Peninsula tip coastal walks and lighthouse, and the fresh ise ebi lobster and Mikawa fugu blowfish cuisine of the southern Chita coast restaurants make Minami-Chita one of the most enjoyably coastal and gastronomically rewarding spa destinations in the western Aichi Prefecture resort corridor.
