[2025 Nagasaki Attraction] Travel Guide for Hashima Island (Updated May)

I was able to land on Gunkanjima, also known as Hashima Island in Nagasaki Prefecture! I participated in a 2.5 hour tour for 3600 yen (plus 310 yen for Gunkanjima baths)! The boat took me around the island slowly, and I was able to take some good photos! The conditions were tough that day (I hadn't been able to land the day before, or the day before), so I was worried I wouldn't be able to land, but I was able to land safely! 😆💕 Gunkanjima made me want to go see the diamonds sleeping in the sea. The guide also told me about the history of Gunkanjima, which made it even more interesting. In fact, the World Heritage Site is not the island itself, but a part of it. 🤫 On the way back, I was also given a certificate of landing ✌🏼✌🏼 #Nagasaki #NagasakiTourism #Gunkanjima #Hashima @DiamondsSleepingInTheSea #0YenTrip

🏖️Overview: Hashima Island is an island in Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture, commonly known as Gunkanjima. Coal was produced there during the Meiji period, and as the amount of coal mined increased, the population rapidly increased and the island expanded. In the 1960s, the island had a population density👤 higher than Tokyo, with Japan's first high-rise reinforced concrete apartment buildings being built, but it became an uninhabited island when the mine was closed in 1974. In 2015, part of the island was registered as a World Heritage Site🌎. 💞Reasons why we recommend it: Although the area that can be walked on the island is limited, you can feel the breath💨 of the people who lived there at the time when they built the foundation for the development of Japan🇯🇵. You can feel the passage of time, but it's worth a visit. The guide💁♀️ said that the island is deteriorating year by year and is gradually crumbling. If you haven't seen it, we recommend that you go there as soon as possible. 📍Location: Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture 📍Access: Nagasaki Prefecture to Nagasaki Port Terminal 🚶: Walk: about 15 minutes 🚃: Streetcar Nagasaki Station tram stop → Get off at Ohato tram stop, about 6 minutes walk Ohato tram stop → Nagasaki Port Terminal, about 5 minutes walk Board the Gunkanjima Landing Tour Ship⛴️, about 40 minutes ※If you apply for the Gunkanjima Landing Tour Cruise, you must make a reservation in advance.

When planning to Nagasaki, has considered this trip as a key trip, no mistake is very shocking, but the island is very bright sunshine, and can not carry an umbrella, in the sun environment stayed about 3 hours, very tormented, and the guide is only speaking Japanese original text, only saw him very fleshy dancing, but do not understand why. It is worth mentioning that there was a Hong Kong person at the ticket office who gave us a very detailed Cantonese explanation ❤️❤️

Battleship Island, originally named Hashima, is located off the coast of Nagasaki. It was once one of Japan's most important underwater coal mines and one of the most densely populated places in the world. Since the 1970s, the coal mine ceased operations, and the island became an abandoned ghost island. Visiting Battleship Island requires a bit of luck because the ferry service is often suspended due to rough seas and high winds. Due to the dilapidated structures all over the island, for safety reasons, visitors must strictly follow the designated routes guided by the staff. On the island, you can see traces of the former coal mine, as well as the ruins of residential buildings, factories, and even a shrine, all exuding a heavy sense of history.

Its located in Nagasaki, i went here using the ferry around 30minutes from the Nagasaki port. A little history for this Island, it was prosperous in the past because it was known for its undersea coal mines. But being abandoned at 1974. It’s been abandoned for 50 years. So it so Dangerous to get inside the Island, we only going to the edge of the island while listening for the story of the guide. I was so lucky because the weather were so nice so we can go to the island. This island was approved as UNESCO world heritage. And was a unique experience for me. So if you have a plan to come to Japan I recommend you to visit this abandoned Island. #japantrip #nagasaki #abandoned

We will introduce Gunkanjima, a World Heritage Site in Nagasaki Prefecture! Its official name is Hashima Island. Gunkanjima is an uninhabited island located 40 minutes by boat from Nagasaki Port. Gunkanjima can only be reached by tour. Several companies offer tours, but there are many days when you cannot land on the island due to weather conditions. A guide will accompany you as you tour the island. The buildings on the island are dilapidated and some have collapsed, so you cannot get close to them, but even from the walking paths you will be amazed at the presence of the buildings that remain. The school with a slide on the roof where children used to go and play is worth seeing! Also, before the Gunkanjima tour, you can visit the Gunkanjima Digital Museum and Nagasaki City Gunkanjima Museum in Nagasaki City to learn about the history of Gunkanjima and photos from that time, which will be helpful for your tour of Gunkanjima. The Gunkanjima Digital Museum is close to Nagasaki Station and can be reached on foot from Glover Garden. The Gunkanjima landing tour was a very fun and valuable experience.

Hashima Island is located about 40 minutes by boat from Nagasaki Port. It is an artificial island built by reclaiming land around a reef. The island is surrounded by a quay and its appearance, with its rows of high-rise reinforced concrete buildings, resembles the battleship "Tosa," hence the name "Battleship Island." At its peak in 1960, it was home to an astounding 5,300 people, making it the most densely populated island in Japan at the time. There are elementary and junior high schools, hospitals, movie theaters, pachinko parlors, and other entertainment facilities on the island, so people could live their entire lives on the island.
