Minamiizu Town, Kamo District, is located in the southeastern part of Shizuoka Prefecture, at the southernmost tip of the Izu Peninsula. The town is comprised of the Shimogamo Onsen and Yumigahama Onsen districts in the Aono River basin. Both areas are small but are hot spring resorts. The coast forms a small ria coastline, and is home to scenic spots such as Cape Irozaki, the southernmost cape of the Izu Peninsula. Shimogamo Onsen is a tranquil hot spring resort in the countryside, featuring a botanical garden that utilizes the hot spring heat. House melons are also cultivated there. Yumigahama, a popular tourist destination, has been selected as one of Japan's 100 best beaches and 100 best swimming beaches. To the west of town is Hakatsuzaki, home to wild monkeys.
