Where to stay in Takehara

Okunoshima is an island in the Seto Inland Sea, also known as Rabbit Island. It's become a popular destination lately for both rabbit lovers and old ruin hunters, which this island has plenty of. There are rabbits EVERYWHERE and most are very friendly. People bring carrots and cabbages (or you can buy rabbit food on the island) and enjoy feeding the wild rabbits. The higher you climb the island (they really are everywhere) the more shy the rabbits are. The ruins around the island are old poison gas research facilities that were used during the war. They are now overrun by plants and rabbits. You can learn more about the island in their poison gas museum. Location: There is a ferry that comes to the island from both Hiroshima prefecture and Omishima island

Okunoshima Island

You'll enjoy the beaches and restaurants in Okunoshima Island. You might want to make time for a stop at Okunoshima Island Poison Gas Museum or Ōkunoshima Ferry Terminal No. 1.

"As much as I'd like to recommend staying here on your trip to bunny island, I cannot. The host did provide details for self check-in, but the property is in various states of disrepair. The AC is left off during the summer, so when we entered, it was hot and humid. The bathroom was left off as well ..."

"Location is great! Problem is when you stay at the ground floor, you feel like it’s in the bunker as you can’t open the curtain as pedestrians will be able to look through the windows as there is no sheer curtain installed"
