A sodium-calcium chloride spring rising at a notably hot 65.8 °C — among the hotter natural sources documented in the region. The water is moderately mineralized (around 2,800 mg/kg evaporation residue) with a salty, heat-retaining character, weakly alkaline and gentle on the skin, and leaves a faint mineral film on emerging.

About

Chiiki Fukushi Senta Arakawa Onsen is a small day-use bathhouse run by the Goto city social welfare council, with a single indoor tub and no sauna. The bath water comes from a hot spring source and is diluted down to a comfortable soaking temperature; it's alkaline and mild, without a strong mineral edge or sliminess. The washing area has lever-style taps, but soap and shampoo aren't provided, so bring your own. It has the feel of an everyday neighborhood bath rather than a tourist stop. Reviewers describe it as busy mostly with local residents, an affordable, unpretentious place to soak, right across from Arakawa's harbor.
