Tropical, relaxing beach on "mainland" Japan?

Hi all-

I'm flying in to Tokyo Narita arriving in the late afternoon of August 25. It's the beginning of a month-long honeymoon and we'd love to take a couple days to chill out on a beach right away, but Okinawa Island sounds less-than-ideal and the logistics of getting to Ishikagi, e.g., are a bit difficult. Is there a recommended beachy destination that's accessible by train from Tokyo -- i.e., somewhere we could arrive that evening if we went straight by train after flying into Tokyo. Or, is there somewhere (e.g. on Kyushu) that we can fly to directly from Narita and find beaches, snorkeling, etc.?

Thanks in advance!
Dan
