The island of Kyushu has long been an insider’s secret, but with a new wave of onsen resorts, its immortal waters are making it a Japan must-visit.
At the entrance to every bathing facility, there will be an area to remove your shoes. Further inside there will be a second area to remove all of your clothing and leave your cell phone behind. All guests must bathe completely naked—there are no exceptions—and tattoos are prohibited as well. A mark of themafia, tattoos can be covered up with a bandage if they’re small. Bathing pools are separated by gender—a blue flag marks the entrance for men, and a red flag marks the entrance for women.
Firstly, your hair and the hand towel must never touch the water; some guests place the towel on the tops of their heads when they aren’t using it to dab their brows or dry their hands. Often, there may be multiple pools with water gurgling at different temperatures—every guest is on their own wellness journey soaking for a few minutes in each, sitting around the pool’s edge to cool off, then getting back in.
