The most beautiful beach in the East under the huge sky without any obstructions. The nice view of the bridge connecting Kurima-jima Island is also attractive. As the sun shines strongly, the beautiful color of the water appears. But in the off-season, you can enjoy beach combing.

The cobalt blue sea and white sand that you can see when you cross the sandy mountains. It's a small beach, but the contrast between the blue sea and the white sand is beautiful, and when I walked barefoot on the beach, the fine white sand was smooth and the soles of my feet were very comfortable.

It is difficult to visit here without guide. Roots of Indian laurel dangle and sunbeams come through the leaves in the sanctuary cave. And you should worship before entering because it is a spiritual place and was also a air‐raid shelter.

Very scenic road in Irabu Island! We can't meet such a straight road leading to the sea in other places except for Irabu Island. And the deep blue color at the both sides of the road makes us feel mystery of the sea.
