Kinosaki Onsen is known for its amazing hot springs, which are also open to visitors of all ages! Take the family to all seven public hot springs and enjoy the relaxation and benefits the hot springs have to offer. Families can also rent the private Onsen spa at Nishimuraya Hotel Shogetsutei if they desire more privacy during vacation. Nishimuraya Hotel Shogetsutei is also a family-friendly hotel, so you won’t have to travel far if you would like the private Onsen spa! However, thankfully all the public hot springs in Kinosaki are within walking distance of each other.

If you want a little lighter one, then Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP) with Suggoi Sports at Niyodo River, or canoeing/SUP with WithRiver at Shimanto River, Japan’s last free-flowing river.
