Overview

Kozushima is one of the Izu islands, located around 160km from the Tokyo port. The island has something for everyone with excellent surfing & swimming beaches as well as many incredible scuba diving and snorkeling locations. The temperate climate of the island provides perfect conditions for hard coral and all variety of fish making it a great destination for snorkelers & divers.

Beautiful island trip with the best people! BBQ dinners were amazing, trip leaders were extremely kind and helpful. My tent was flooded on the first night and they very kindly lent me their extra rain-fly. Thanks team!

Kozushima was my first big trip by myself to an Island. I went by myself but always felt supported by staff and other members. I felt sick one night and staff and others helped me and I could recover and enjoy the rest of my trip. The boat was super nice with great facilities like restaurant, showers, sleeping area, and even a scavenger hunt. You could buy most food, snacks, and even alcohol on the boat as well. The island is beautiful and the campground had great facilities like washlet toilets, outlets for charging, and gorgeous ocean view in front of you! Akasaki promenade was great for snorkeling and the onsen near our campground was wonderful. There were shops in town you could go to as well to buy food and drinks. Tokyo Snow Club fed us well every night with multi course bbqs! Breakfast was also great fuel for the day. I’d really like to thank the staff for supporting me and working so hard during the trip. I can’t wait to go again!

It was my first time heading out to these islands as well as trying out camping, and I'm happy to say that it Tokyo Snow Club made it an amazing experience. The trip was fun and well organized. I was able to enjoy my own activities (diving) but was also easily able to hop into the prepared activities like enjoying fireworks and stargazing on the beach. Loved the daily BBQ, guides were nice and friendly, and overall great vibes throughout the whole trip.

The trip was exceptionally well-organized, and the staff members were friendly and accommodating. What I particularly enjoyed about this experience was the flexibility it offered—participants could either partake in structured events or create their own plans. The organized activities, such as the planned firecrackers and island night exploration, added a delightful touch to the overall experience. The only hiccup was the transportation on the island, which got a bit confusing. The bus schedule was only every other hour, and if I missed one, it wasn't exactly within a walkable distance. On the bright side, fellow travelers were a friendly bunch, and it's worth noting that the place is both pet-friendly and vegan-friendly. While the travel to the island was a bit lengthy, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a good time. I was on this journey with five of our friends, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. In fact, I've already booked another trip and am looking forward more winter fun ahead.
