Namiuchizaki

Namiuchi is a dynamic rocky reef where the rough waves of the Pacific Ocean wash over you with spray. This reef is the end of the Sannoiwa Promenade, and the upper part is almost flat. When you look down at the ocean from atop an unfenced reef, the sound of the rough waves that resonates deep in your chest makes you feel once again the majesty of nature.

Sanriku Railway

On March 23, 2019, the 163km stretch of the Sanriku Railway between Kuji and Sakari was connected as the Rias Line. It is the longest third sector railway in Japan.

Sano Rock (prefecturally designated natural monument)

Sano-iwa, which appears to rise from the sea, is made up of three gigantic rocks: the drum-shaped Taiko-iwa, the 50m-high Otoko-iwa, and the Onna-iwa nearby. There is a sea cave in Otokowa, and it is said that passing through it will bring you good luck. The rock has layers of Cretaceous conglomerate and sandstone. There is a promenade nearby, and you can also do sea fishing. The further down the promenade you go, the closer you will see the brave rock formations. Dynamic rock fishing can be enjoyed all along the coast from Taro Port to Masaki and Myojinzaki. You can catch greenling, sea bass, donko, perch, mackerel, etc. The season is from May to December.
