🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Kamakura Station (East Exit – Enoden platform) → Hase Station (Great Buddha) / Enoshima / Fujisawa
💡 Day pass costs 700 yen – covers unlimited rides for 24 hours. Sit on the left side for ocean views between Kamakura and Inamuragasaki. To reach Hase (Big Buddha), get off at Hase Station – it's a 3-minute walk. Avoid the tram after 17:00 in summer when locals pack it.
Kamakura Station (opposite hotel) → Hase / Enoshima / Fujisawa
💡 Buy a day pass (800 JPY) if you'll ride 3+ times. Sit on the left side for sea views between Hase and Koshigoe. Avoid rush hours (8-9am, 5-6pm) when it's jammed.
Narita Airport (NRT) – Terminal 1/2/3 → Kamakura Station West Exit (bus stop 1)
💡 Buy ticket from the vending machine near the bus stop – no reservation needed. To reach IZA Hostel it's a 5-minute walk from the bus stop down Komachi Street. Last bus departs around 20:00, so for late arrivals take the Narita Express to Tokyo then the Tokaido Line to Kamakura.
Narita Airport → Hotel Metropolitan Kamakura JR-EAST
💡 Take bus to Yokohama Station (YCAT), then local bus or taxi to Kamakura. Less luggage hassle, but book bus seat in advance at Narita counter.
Narita Airport → Hotel Metropolitan Kamakura JR-EAST
💡 Use only if splitting with 3-4 people. Fixed-fare taxi schemes at Terminal 1 north exit—yellow plates are cheaper than black limousines.
Narita Airport (NRT) → Kamakura Station
💡 Use the N'EX to Tokyo Station (approx 55 min), then transfer directly to the Yokosuka Line (Platform 1 at ground level) for Kamakura. Japan Rail Pass is valid, but the N'EX limited express surcharge is covered. Avoid rush hour (07:30–09:00) if you have bags – the Yokosuka line has luggage racks but they fill fast.
Narita Airport → Kamakura Station (Hotel Metropolitan Kamakura)
💡 Buy a Suica card at Narita; the hotel exit is 2 mins from Kamakura Station's east gate. Validate at both transfers—Narita Express then change at Yokohama.
Haneda Airport (HND) – Terminal 1/2/3 International → Kamakura Station
💡 Cheapest option by far. Take the Keikyu line local train – it changes to the Yokosuka Line at Zushi (no need to switch trains). Sit on the right-hand side leaving Haneda for views of the Yui coast. IZA is a 6-minute walk from Kamakura Station's east exit.

Top Attractions in Kamakura
💡 Go early, around 7am, to see the morning rituals and have the place almost to yourself before crowds arrive.
💡 Skip the chain stores near the station; head halfway down where you’ll find Kamakura-bori lacquerware workshop (free to watch) and a tiny soba shop. The kamakura-imo (sweet potato) ice cream is a must-try, 350 yen.
💡 Arrive at 6am to see morning prayers and the grounds without crowds. The museum is free on the first Saturday of each month.
💡 Arrive just before 8am to see the morning ceremony and avoid the crowds. The rear bamboo grove is quieter than the main path.
💡 Sit on the wooden veranda of the rear building for a long, quiet view of the garden — no one will rush you.
💡 Bring a handful of small coins to wash; it's considered bad luck to wash large bills. Go mid-afternoon for the best light in the cave.
💡 Walk east from the main beach to the quieter stretch near Inamuragasaki Park. Bring a towel—deckchair rentals are overpriced. Best for sunset around 5pm in winter.
💡 The attached Zen garden has a karesansui (rock garden) that's often empty by 4pm. Walk up the hill behind the temple for a wooded trail linking to other temples.
