Beppu Beach Sand Bath

Beppu's Beach Sand Bath offers a uniquely Japanese geothermal experience: being buried to the neck in naturally heated black sand on Beppu Bay in Oita Prefecture. The sand is warmed by underground hot springs to around 50°C. The weight and heat are believed to improve circulation and soothe muscles. This distinctive alternative to traditional hot spring bathing is one of Beppu's most memorable and unusual onsen experiences.
