Yakushima, Japan

The inspiration for the setting of the Ghibli movie: Princess Mononoke (もののけ姫). It’s a pretty simple island:

  • Go for a hike and see all the big trees – see map below
  • See the nice beaches and coastline
  • There are turtles for snorkelling and if you go at the right time of year – hatching turtles

Tanegashima, Japan

There’s only 1 real reason to go here: to witness a rocket launch. Believe it or not but this is the space centre that Pokemon base their Moss Deep Space station off. Old detailed blog.
