Live Webcams in Awaji Island

Awaji is the largest island of the Seto Inland Sea, in Hyōgo Prefecture between Honshu and Shikoku, and the live webcams on Awaji Island look at a quieter Japan than the mainland cities: hills of farmland and pine, the feeding grounds where wild macaques gather, the bridges that tie the island to both coasts, and the inland sea itself, flat and busy with small shipping. Awaji keeps Japan Standard Time, UTC+9, with no daylight saving, so the island's afternoon falls in the European small hours. The island covers 592 square kilometres, and its onions are famous across Japan. March to May and September to November are the mild seasons, between the wet early summer and the cold, clear winter.
