Take a short ferry to an island
In Kanagawa, next to Tokyo, there are islands you can reach with a boat ride of just a few minutes. Even a short crossing feels like a trip once the pier drops away and you are out on the water. No booking is needed for these boats, so you can decide on the day; just check the weather, because they may not run in rough seas.
Town
Yokosuka
A navy town of embroidered jackets and burgers
Yokosuka is a port city south of Yokohama, about an hour by train from central Tokyo, and home to a US Navy base. Its signature dish is the Navy Burger, made to a recipe the base gave the city, and the street by the base gate sells sukajan, satin jackets embroidered with dragons, tigers and eagles, first made as souvenirs for American servicemen after the war. Browse the jacket shops, have a burger, then walk to the waterfront to watch the ships.
Do
Walk across hillsides covered in flowers
Some hills in Japan turn a single color from edge to edge: blue with nemophila, pink with moss phlox, yellow with rapeseed blossoms, or red with kochia bushes in autumn. Each hill peaks in a different season, so pick one that matches your travel dates and check the bloom news on its website. The hills are large, so allow one to two hours to walk around slowly.
