Ohama Seaside Park

4.0

This is a very popular leisure spot full of abundant natural scenery even among Amami Oshima Island. The park includes the Amami Kaiyo Museum (Maritime Museum), which introduces the types of animals inhabiting the waters adjacent to Amami Oshima Island, and Ohama Beach, which allows visitors to enjoy the cobalt blue ocean, white sandy beach, and coral reefs. In the center of the park is Kaigara Stage Hiroba, an amphitheater with a large seashell shape that serves as a venue for outdoor events, and in the bathhouse there are showers, toilets and coin lockers available. It’s also worth seeing the sun set as it sinks down in the East China Sea.

White sandy beach 1.5 hours drive from the airport. We loved the sunset .It was very quiet and peaceful.Would love to visit in May or June, when we could swim and snorkel.

ツアーで伺いました。「サンゴ礁と透き通る海、白い砂浜」のパンフレットの通り、珊瑚が砕けて出来た砂は白く、パウダー状の細かさ。でも、曇天の為期待した程透明感で無く、残念。海岸に「アダンの実」がなっていて、まるで「田中一村のアダンの海辺」の様、思わず写真を撮りました。公衆トイレの横に、バナナの様な木の小さな群生があつて、モンキーバナナ？と思ったら「糸芭蕉」との事。芭蕉布の原料になるそうです。

ツアーで訪問しました。日本の渚100選にも選ばれている、白い砂浜がきれいな所です。サンゴを拾っている人もいました。
