    Hyogo Minami-awaji-shi Matsuhokotsuro
    This beach is located approximately a five-minute drive from the Kobe-Awaji-Naruto Expressway's Seidan-Mihara Interchange. The largest beach in Awaji, it was selected as Japan's 100 Best Sunsets, Top 88 Japanese Beaches, Japan's 100 Most Beautiful Beaches and Best Beach 100 (comfortable beaches). It is known as the best white sand and blue pine in Setouchi, with tens of thousands of pine trees planted on about 2.5 kilometers of sandy beach stretching north to south. Each year it is crowded with beachgoers and campers because it is famous for its beautiful sunset over the Harima Pass.

Hyogo prefecture stretches from the north coast to the south coast on the western end of the popular Kansai region, encompassing verdant mountains, urban beaches, and fantastic historical sights. The prefecture’s main attractions lie along the south coast at Kobe, the prefectural capital, a pretty harbor city best known for its production of the renowned Kobe beef, and Himeji, the home of Himeji Castle, one of the country’s most beautifully preserved feudal castles, perched magically atop a hill.
