Higashidori Onsen Aomori

Higashidori, at the northeastern tip of Honshu on the Shimokita Peninsula in Aomori Prefecture, is a remote wind-swept coastal community on the Pacific coast whose traditional tuna fishing culture — the Oma tuna fishing heritage just to the north represents Japan's most celebrated wild bluefin tuna fishery — and the extraordinary Shimokita Peninsula wilderness of the Osorezan volcanic caldera lake create a profoundly atmospheric and remote Japanese frontier setting. Higashidori Onsen Aomori draws on chloride-rich coastal thermal waters from the marine geological formations of the Shimokita Peninsula Pacific coast, providing warming maritime baths in a remote community at Japan's northeastern extremity where the wild Pacific coast, the nearby Oma bluefin tuna fishing heritage, and the sacred volcanic landscape of Osorezan create a dramatically remote and spiritually charged spa atmosphere. The Oma bluefin tuna fishing heritage and the exceptional fresh Oma tuna cuisine, the sacred Osorezan volcanic caldera lake with its sulfurous hot springs and Itako medium spiritual culture, and the remote Shimokita Peninsula wilderness of windswept capes and wild Pacific coast make Higashidori an outstandingly remote and authentically frontier thermal spa destination at the northeastern tip of Honshu.
