10 Best Hot Springs in Japan

"Located at the southern end of Yakushima Island and accessible only at low tide, Hirauchi Kaichu Onsen is an open-air, sulfuric hot spring that’s set along a rocky shoreline and gushes from below sea level. The spectacular coastal setting makes it a particularly special and unique spot to soak." - Travel + Leisure Editors
