Enoshima is a small island located in south Kanagawa Prefecture in the city of Fujisawa, close to the Kamakura Area. It has a lighthouse, botanical gardens and a shrine deep in a cave with a dragon that may grant your wish! There are stairs that are not wheelchair accessible. Those with difficulty walking can use escalators but there are still many steep inclines. Unfortunately, a large portion of the Island is not accessible for those with walking difficulties. For more information on accessibility, please see the descriptions and photos below.
