Sunset from Michika Island


Michikajima, Michika Island, is a tiny, uninhabited island in the Seto Inland Sea. It is located between Hakata Island and Oshima Island and is part of Ehime.


It is on the Shimanami Kaido that connects Shikoku with Honshu. It connects to Hakata Island by the Hakata Bridge, and to Oshima Island by the Hakata-Oshima Bridge which can be seen in some of these photos. There is a small campsite on the island but is only accessible for cyclists, pedestrians, or moped/scooter riders.


I spent the night there at the end of my second day walking along the Shimanami Kaido, and I had the island completely to myself.


I know many of you are in lockdown right now, and I hope you are all staying safe and well. There will come a time when we can all go out and visit such places again.....

  1. Such great photos. And sights I remember when cycling the Shimanami Kaido, one of the "National Cycle Routes of Japan", with my son about 4 years ago.
