Best Beaches Near Osaka
Before coming to Osaka, I wasn’t prepared for the summers of Japan. I remember the day I arrived here all too clearly. It was August, around this time and it was the peak of summer. Getting off the plane into the un-air conditioned dock leading to the main airport. As soon as I took one step into that tunnel, I felt a gush of hot and humid air hit my face like a hot air dryer. “Fuck me”, I thought to myself. I hated the humidity in Japan.However, even if I dreaded the hot weather, over the years I found that there are a lot of good things about summer in Japan. To me, summer is more enjoyable with these things: Girls in yukatas, summer festivals, fireworks, suikawari (smashing watermelons with a stick after being spun hundreds of times). But most importantly…beaches and beautiful Japanese girls in bikinis.
Yes, Japanese girls in bikinis. Summer is the best time to see girls in their most natural form – without push up bras and heavy makeup. In addition to seeing their goods that their mothers gave them.
During summer there is an abundance of activities and food that Japan has to offer. But it is also a great season to meet girls. With long summer holidays, this makes for the perfect time for you to hit the beaches and go on your summer-fuck hunt. For those of you searching for summer flings, here are my reviews of my favorite beaches near Osaka.
Suma
Whenever the word summer comes up, I always hear the word “Suma”. It’s almost synonymous to summer here in Kansai. Suma can be easily accessed by Suma Station, Hyogo on the JR Kobe line west of Sannomiya. Approximately 50 minutes from Osaka station.This beach is one of the most popular beaches near Osaka among all ages. But when universities are on vacation, you can expect to find hot college students and groups from 20’s to 30’s. And as you know already, these students are often young, looking for adventure and just wanting to have fun. On occasion, there are even events with DJ’s playing.
Nishikihama
Nishikihama is one of the best beaches near Osaka for its clean and clear water. If you’re more into water activities, and actually enjoying the water, I recommend Nishikihama. The beach can be accessed by Nishikihama Station, Sawa, Kaizuka City. It is about an hour away from Osaka Station. The geography of the beach is a little different to that of Suma with a 1-kilometer white sand beach alongside green pine trees. The name literally means “Two Color Beach”.Compared to Suma, here you can experience the summer and beach atmosphere fully with jet-skis, wind surfing (if there is any wind at all). You can find rentable equipment like big ass floaties, and many areas to hang out in big groups over 25 people. If your group is small, you don’t need to reserve, which is a plus. Also, barbecuing is permitted!
In my opinion, Nishikihama will give you the ultimate beach experience here in Kansai and is one of the go-to beaches near Osaka. With barbecues, water sports, and accommodation nearby, there are just more things to do. In addition, to checking out girls. Also, overall, it’s just cleaner and more beautiful than Suma. Most people make a day trip to Nishikihama, but there are beach houses and many hotels that you can rent out around the area.
Shirarahama
If you have more time and have a weekend to go out and stay the night, Shirarahama is a great choice for vacationers looking for beaches near Osaka. It can be accessed by Shirahama Station on the JR line. It takes approximately 2.5 hours from Shin Osaka on the limited express. It’s a bit far compared to the other mentioned beaches near Osaka, but worth the time. Also, it’s also not as big as the other beaches at 800 meters. But that means it’s more compact and proximity will work in your favor.Shirarahama is one of the more beautiful beaches in the Kansai area because of its white sands. These sands were imported from Australia (Cheaters). In peak seasons, such as Obon, it brings flocks of people and is known to be super crowded in the summer time. However, as a popular vacation spot, there are many hotels surrounding the beach which makes it the perfect place to meet people on vacation who are normally relaxed and ready to have fun.
Moreover, Shirahama Town is famous for their onsens and many have private onsens for you to reserve and rent. A good place for couples if you ever dreamt about banging in hot water. But I’d rather not get into a hot spring during a hot season.
Other Good Summer Spots
In addition to the above beaches near Osaka, there are many more summer spots in the Kansai area. For example, Lake Biwako is a great place to chill out in summer and meet people. A man-made lake which looks like a beach. It’s a big lake in Shiga prefecture next to Kyoto where many people pitch tents for the day and barbecue. It can get crowded so if you plan to go, make sure to go and pick a spot early.Thanks from osakabros
