``I'm tired from work and exhausted every day, and before I know it, my dates with my boyfriend end up being at home...Even though he and I are both indoor types, it's hard to feel good if we're always cooped up like this!'' If you think so, aim for the sea! Looking out at the unobstructed ocean will make you feel refreshed. If you have onsen nearby, you can relieve your fatigue and kill two birds with one stone.

I would like to recommend Nanki Shirahama onsen in Wakayama. It is an attractive resort area with pure white sand and blue sea. The sea has a feeling of openness with nothing to obstruct it! You can wash your soul. Moreover, it only takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes from “Haneda Airport” to “Nanki Shirahama Airport”! After a quick chat with him, we arrive!
