The approximately 6 km long coastline at the tip of the Suesaki Peninsula that juts out to the south of Ofunato Bay is the Goishi Coast, which has been designated as a national scenic spot and natural monument. In addition, Goishi Beach has been designated as one of the top 100 beaches in Japan with white sand and green pine trees. 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 filled with flowers such as hyacinth japonica, Japanese lily, and cypress lily. There are also facilities in the surrounding area, such as the City Museum, the World Camellia Museum, Go Stone, and a campground.
