A 10 hour ferry ride from Harumi port in Tokyo (and still in Tokyo) lies the tiny and idyllic island of Shikinejima. Tranquil beaches, hiking trails, 2 natural hot springs, free camping and incredibly friendly people make this my favourite place in Japan. Every June there is an Aquathon, a 750m ocean swim followed by a 5km run. For the last couple of years I've participated in this race, spluttering around the bay and then staggering around the island. See you there in 2010.
