365. Shiratori Onsen Shimoyu, Ebino, Miyazaki ★ An onsen for ¥500 in Ebino. The stated hours are 07:00 to 20:00, except the third Tuesday. They stamp the Kyushu 88 onsen stamp rally. At the onsen itself there is an outdoor area, but there was no water there. The photo of the indoor bath from the internet matches. Indoor bath. Breathing is fine. 1. A bath with clear brown, slightly cloudy water. Temperature 44. 2. A cold bath with utaseyu. 3. Sauna. It is unclear why the outdoor baths were not working, but overall it is a good addition to the neighboring onsen, although it is not as cozy and has no views. If choosing one onsen in this area, the neighboring one. 08.01.2025
