Hachijō is a small volcanic island at the heart of Japan’s Izu Archipelago, located roughly 300km from the main island of Japan. It is part of a long chain of islands starting off the Izu Peninsula and reaching far south in the Pacific Ocean that are all administered by the Tōkyō Metrolopolis, which has earned them the nickname “Tokyo Islands“… Hachijō is a remote subtropical island, yet easily accessible from Tōkyō, either by a 55-minute flight from Haneda Airport or by a 10-hour night-ferry ride from the mainland.
