Major city · Japan
Mishima三島
Use Mishima as a day‑trip gateway to Izu Peninsula; 4–6 h total, or stay 1 night for Mt Fuji views and shrine.
Mishima sits at the base of the Izu Peninsula, on the Tōkaidō Shinkansen and Sunzu Line. It offers quick access to Mt Fuji, Izu beaches and historic sites, making it a convenient stopover rather than a long‑stay base.
