Connected to mainland Kyushu by the first of the Five Bridges of Amakusa, it offers a scenic drive filled with ocean vistas and tranquil seascapes. The Amakusa Shiro Memorial Hall, which tells the story of early Christianity in Japan, adds a fascinating cultural touch.

Whether you're stopping by for a relaxing break or beginning a longer island-hopping journey, Oyano Island has something to offer. Stroll along peaceful coastlines, explore local history, and enjoy fresh seafood with a view. Its convenient location makes it an ideal introduction to the natural and cultural wonders of the Amakusa region.

Getting around

Oyano Island is easy to reach because it’s connected to the Kumamoto mainland and the other Amakusa islands by bridges. You don’t need a ferry to get there — just drive across. This makes Oyano a great starting point for exploring the beautiful Amakusa area.

While there are buses on Oyano and the main road between Kumamoto and southern Amakusa has hourly bus service, public transport can be limited in other parts. Renting a car is the best way to explore Oyano Island and beyond. You can find rental cars in Amakusa City or near major train stations on the Kumamoto side.
