Himeshima Ecotourism
Enjoy comprehensive services and explore Himeshima’s unique charms via eco-cars!
Himeshima Ecotourism, which operates the local tourism office, offers a variety of rental options powered by Himeshima’s solar energy, including ultra-compact electric vehicles for 1–2 passengers, land cars for 4–7 passengers, and electric kick scooters (helmets required).
Visitors can also enjoy memorable activities such as mask painting and creating photo frames using materials collected from Himeshima’s beaches. The facility includes a café space, perfect for relaxing while waiting for the ferry.
Additional services include fishing rod and float rentals, free luggage storage, and guided tours. The guided tours are available in multiple languages – feel free to inquire for more details.
Every year in late October, a local festival takes place, and on that day, rental cars are available at special rates. Hop in an eco-friendly vehicle powered by the sun and experience an unforgettable journey around Himeshima!
