Radon
Classification

Sodium Chloride-Bicarbonate spring

A radon-bearing weak radioactive spring. Weakly alkaline at pH 8.4 and only lightly mineralized at 729 mg/kg, so the water itself feels gentle on the skin. The radon load of 236.8 Bq/kg (17.6 Mache) is what makes the source distinctive — well into the 'hormesis' tradition of radon bathing. Heated, recirculated and chlorine-disinfected before reaching the bath.

637. Shikimatsuri, Kishiwada, Osaka Visited for day use at 750 yen. Day use available from 09:00 to 21:00. They stamp the 88 Onsen of Wakayama stamp book. Bath photos from the internet match. Outdoor bath. Could have been a very cool view (there's even an infinity-style slope), but an opaque fence ruins everything and there's practically no view. Clear water. There's a smell similar to "bromine." Temperature 40. Indoor bath with clear water, temperature 41. Breathing inside is good. There's a staircase to the floor above leading to a lookout. The onsen is inconvenient to get to and the opaque fence really ruins the bath. Not worth a special day trip. 03.11.2025
