Tsushima (津島町, Tsushima-chō) was a town located in Kitauwa District, Ehime Prefecture, Japan.
On August 1, 2005, Tsushima, along with the towns of Mima and Yoshida (all from Kitauwa District), was merged into the expanded city of Uwajima.
Tsushima is known for the Iwamatsu River and the festival, "Shirauo Matsuri", they have each year where people eat tiny, live fish.
Another festival is "Tsushima Summer Matsuri" which is held in August.
