Next, cross Benten Bridge onto Enoshima and wander the Sando, a street full of food stalls and souvenir shops, where you’ll have free time for lunch. Climb up to Enoshima Shrine, ride the Escar escalator to the Sea Candle, and look out over Sagami Bay. On a clear day, you’ll spot Mount Fuji. Back in Kamakura, explore the gardens at Hase-dera and step inside Benten-kutsu Cave before finishing at the iconic Great Buddha of Kotoku-in, one of Japan’s largest bronze statues. Then sit back and relax on the way home to Tokyo. Bamboo forests, old temples, island streets, and ocean views, all in one easy day with seamless transportation from start to finish.
