Beach BBQ Party in Sarushima, Yokosuka
I had a BBQ Party with my friends in Sarushima, Yokosuka.
Sarushima (Monkey Island) is a small, uninhabited island in Tokyo Bay.

Here we are enjoying a BBQ party at the beach!

Many people have picnics, BBQs or go fishing here every day during summer.

This is the boat you have to take to get back to the mainland.
