The plum is associated with the start of spring, because plum blossoms are some of the first blossoms to open during the year. In most areas of Japan, including Tokyo, they typically flower in February and March. The five-petaled plum blossom is the national flower of the Republic of China in Taiwan. The blooming of the Plum Blossoms in both countries is a beautiful experience to behold. Plum blossoms (Ume in Japanese) start to bloom earlier than their related and very similar looking cousin flowers the cherry blossoms ( sakura) do. The plum blossom season in Japan is generally from mid-February until the end of March but can differ from region to region. Because they blossom earlier than sakura, for many people this is the mark of the arrival of spring and warmer weather Unlike the Cherry Blossoms which generally do not have much of an aroma, The Plum Blossoms have a very sweet and very vibrant aroma. Vacationing during the plum season is a great way to avoid the big crowds and offers a great opportunity to enjoy the early part of the spring season in Japan in a unique way.

The refreshing coastal breeze and inviting landscape make walking in this remote corner of Europe truly reinvigorating. Each day’s walks are along coastal trails with little to no ascent (at most between 250 and 675 feet total daily ascent on any of our daily coastal walks), thus anyone in reasonable fitness shape can enjoy these guided walks and the stunning scenery that each walk will provide you.
