Its coasts are washed by Yatsuhiro Sea, Hachimannoseto strait and East China Sea. Nagashima Island, together with Shishi-jima, {{ill|Shoura Island|ja|諸浦島}} and {{ill|Ikara Island|ja|伊唐島|lt=Ikara}} islands, is administered as part of Nagashima town since 2006. The island's highest peak is Mount Dainaka-dake {{convert|403|m|ft|abbr=on}}, although Mount Yatake is only slightly lower at {{convert|402|m|ft|abbr=on}} TransportationThe Nagashima Island is connected to Kyushu mainland by {{ill|Kuronoseto Oohashi|ja|黒之瀬戸大橋}} bridge (completed in 1974) over 400-meter wide strait. It is also connected to Ikara Island by {{ill|Ikara Oohashi|ja|伊唐大橋}} since 1990 and to {{ill|Shoura Island|ja|諸浦島}} since 1966. The national roads serving the island is Route 389.

Later in Edo period the island was notable for its fruit gardens and horse grazing meadows. Modern Nagashima is concentrating on food industry, in particular on alcoholic bewerages[1], garments, shoes, and electronics manufacture. ClimateNagashima Island is located in the humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), with four distinct seasons. The island never sees snowfall during the winter. Spring in Shimoshima Island starts off mild, but ends up being hot and humid. The summer tends to be Shimoshima's wettest season, with the {{Nihongo4|tsuyu|梅雨|tsuyu|"plum rain"}} — the rainy season — occurring between early June (average:Jun.7) to late July (average:Jul.21). The island's weather is affected by the nearby {{ill|Liman current|ja|リマン海流}} while being shielded from the warm Kuroshio Current by the Kyushu island, resulting in wetter and colder climate than should be expected at lower 30`s latitudes.
