Hashigui-iwa
Heading from Kushimoto toward Oshima, more than 40 large and small rock pillars rise from the sea in a row about 850 m long, designated a national natural monument.
Showing different faces by season, weather, time of day and tide, Hashigui-iwa is, along with Cape Shionomisaki, one of Kushimoto's most popular spots. It was selected as one of Japan's 100 Strange Rock Formations+!
When the tide is out you can walk up to the rocks!
The Hashigui-iwa illumination held around November each year was also selected as a Japan Night View Heritage site.
It is about a 20 to 25-minute walk from JR Kushimoto Station, or about 3 minutes by community bus.
At the roadside station "Kushimoto Hashigui-iwa" right in front of Hashigui-iwa, besides souvenirs, soft serve made with ponkan is sold, so when you visit Kushimoto, don't miss "Hashigui-iwa"!
