Atami occupies steep coastal slopes on Sagami Bay, at the northeastern edge of Japan’s Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture. Long known as a hot-spring resort, it is built around Atami Onsen, where ryokan inns and public baths remain central to local life. The seafront also hosts the Atami Fireworks Festival on selected dates through the year, with the bay’s surrounding hills amplifying the sound. Above town, the MOA Museum of Art presents Japanese and East Asian art, while nearby Atami Castle is a 1959 tourist reconstruction rather than a surviving feudal fortress.
