Insider tip — Shikinejima is one of the smaller Izu Islands (part of Tokyo), reachable by ferry from Shimoda or Ajiro. The island has several hot spring spots — Ikoi no Ie is the community rest-house bath. The volcanic geology produces iron-tinged sulfurous waters with a vivid amber hue. Combine with a cycle tour of this tiny, nearly car-free island.
