April to May for blooming flowers and comfortable temperatures, and October to November for vibrant autumn foliage and crisp air make these months ideal for visiting Takashima.
The peak season typically falls during the summer months (July-August) due to the popularity of Lake Biwa for swimming and water sports, leading to larger crowds and higher accommodation prices.
