Furthermore, the sound emitted from the Thunder Rocks within it has been designated as one of Japan's ``100 Best Soundscapes of Japan to Preserve.'' The climate is warm, and the pine forest is full of blooming hyacinths, Japanese lilies, and daisies. There are also facilities in the surrounding area, such as the City Museum, the World Camellia Museum, Go Stone, and a campground.

Imadeyama

Mount Imade, towering over the urban area of ​​Ofunato City, is 756 meters above sea level. The view overlooking Ofunato Bay and the city area, as well as the Pacific Ocean and the Karakuwa Peninsula is spectacular. When the azaleas bloom, the area around the mountaintop is dyed bright red, and when you look up from the national highway, it looks as if the mountain is on fire. Once you reach the top of the mountain, you can take a walk through a large colony of blooming azaleas. From the top of the mountain, you can see the azaleas in full bloom, the city below, and even the blue ocean. [Blooming period] Late May to early June

Kubizaki

A huge rocky peak that rises to the east of the Ekiki Peninsula. At its base, white waves are splashing, and it's powerful enough to remind you of the maritime Alps. It is said that this name came from the head of an Ezo chief who washed ashore. At the tip of the cape is the Kubizaki Lighthouse, and the view of the series of capes from here is spectacular.
