Jodogahama Beach

The name Jodogahama was given about 300 years ago by Reikyo, the seventh head priest of Joanji Temple in Mt. Miyako, who exclaimed, ``It's just like the Pure Land of Paradise.'' In 2001, it was selected as one of the top 100 scented landscapes, and in 2006, it was selected as one of Japan's 100 best bathing beaches, specially selected by the sea section.

Takohama Beach

A beach made of dark brown conglomerate that contrasts with the white rocks of Jodogahama. It is located behind Jodogahama Beach and is not very noticeable, making it a little-known spot. Many holes created by seawater erosion can be seen in the rocks on the coast. In addition, the coastline itself is beautiful and is a lively beach for local children in the summer. It is located about 15 minutes along the promenade from Jodogahama Beach. *There are no plans to open the sea in 2020.
