Natural hot springs with spring water mixing with sea water, temperature depends on the tide. Water is believed to be curative (for neuralgia, gastroenteric disorders, etc.). Bathing suit required.

Jinata Onsen is isolated from the rest of the island by a hill, and reached though a gorge. At night, it is really completely isolated, and a great place to bath (bringing a torch would probably be a good idea)!
