Ōkunoshima, a tiny island located in the Seto Inland Sea, is part of Setonaikai National Park and is declared both an eco-island, a national vacation village and a public health resort. Disregarding whatever those terms actually entail, it’s a pleasant island with an eye on sustainability, has lots of nature and it is small enough to walk around it in about 90 minutes.
The best part about it though, is that it boosts a huge population of wild rabbits and it is actually better known as Rabbit Island, or Usagishima. However, its furry inhabitants isn't the only thing the island is known for; it holds a dark past of years of secretly producing poison gasses for the Japanese army.
