    Kagawa Pref. Mitoyoshi Niochounio Otsu 203-3
    This roughly one-kilometer long beach is also known as the Salar de Uyuni of Japan. It's been designated one of the Japan’s 100 best sunset destinations. The scenery is truly superb between 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after sunset when two conditions are satisfied: the tide and sunset coincide and there is no wind to make waves on the surface of the water.

    We plan to visit this beach to take amazing photos like other visitors however we forgot to do enough research and came here around noon. The beach is quite large and a bit windy. It s a nice beach...

  • Mt. Shiude
    Travel / Tourism
    Kasama-cho, Santoyo City, Kagawa Prefecture
    This mountain is on the Shonai Peninsula, which is closely associated with the legend of Urashima Taro (a popular Japanese folk tale). As the story goes, Urashima Taro opened a box and white smoke poured out, collecting as a purple cloud over Mt. Shiude (a mountain of emerging purple clouds). The spectacular view from the top of the mountain has gorgeous seasonal scenery year-round. It's particularly stunning when its roughly 1,000 cherry trees are in full bloom.

  • Manno Pond
    Travel / Tourism
    Nakanado Gunma Town, Kagawa Prefecture
    This pond is associated with a dragon legend depicted in ''A Dragon is Caught by a Tengu Goblin,'' the first story in volume 20 of Konjaku Monogatarishu, an ancient collection of tales. It can hold 15.4 million cubic meters of water, making it the largest reservoir in the prefecture. It has long been used as an irrigation source. During rice planting season, you might spot the faint lights of the local Manno fireflies. They're a little larger than the common variety.

  • Tsutajima Island
    Travel / Tourism
    Kagawa Mitoyo-shi Niocho
    This is a small-uninhabited island about one kilometer west from the Nio Harbor. There is a larger Otsuta Island and a small Kotsuta Island, together called Tsuta Islands. The ferries only run from Nio Harbor to these nearby islands from April through October. In the summer, they are popular island that are full of visitors enjoying the beach and leisure activities. These uninhabited islands do not even have vending machines or, naturally, any form of electrically powered devices. A beach clubhouse is set up during the summer season, and visitors can purchase simple meals and snacks. The ferryboats do not run on a schedule, but rather just whenever a customer needs to be ferried. In order to return back to Shikoku Island, one must call the ferry by phone.

Kagawa Areas

around-area-map

Japan’s smallest prefecture, Kagawa, may take up just a small corner of Shikoku, but it has grown increasingly popular with the recognition of Naoshima, its "art island" in the Seto Inland Sea between Shikoku and Honshu. Just a stone’s throw from the islands, mainland Kagawa’s prefectural capital, Takamatsu, holds history in its castle ruins and its pride and joy, Ritsurin Garden, is known as one of the country’s best gardens.
