Jodogahama Beach (Sightseeing)
The picturesque scenery of Jodogahama — with beautiful white rock surfaces, softly embraced by the serene vast sea — is like an illusion of Paradise. In the tranquil cove, you can enjoy a ride on a sightseeing boat or a traditional Sappa boat. Even after the earthquake, this shoreline continues to shine — a special place where you can feel the strength and beauty of Tohoku’s nature.
