    A 20-minute taxi ride from Shin-Kurashiki Station. A beach located on the southwestern tip of Kurashiki City which has been selected for inclusion in a list of Japan's 100 Best Beaches. This beach is also said to be the birthplace of leisure ocean swimming and beach going in Japan. Visited by large numbers of people year round, here you can enjoy a beach situated amidst the calm beauty of the Seto Inland Sea. The western beach, Japan's first artificial beach created in 1989, is also worth a look. Conveniently accessible, visitors can drive their cars right up next to the beach. In addition to swimming, visitors can also enjoy relaxing fishing. A beach festival and other events are held during the swimming season when a south seas resort atmosphere hangs in the air.

Overshadowed by Hiroshima to the west and the Kansai region to the east, Okayama is an easy spot to miss but a nature-rich gem where the Seto Inland Sea laps at its toes and peach and grape farms complete its interior. One of Japan’s Three Great Gardens, Koraku-en in Okayama city is well worth a visit before progressing to Kurashiki, where preserved wooden Edo buildings line the picturesque canal.
