Overview
Akiya's Tateishi Rock is a 12-meter-high, oddly shaped rock rising from Sagami Bay in Akiya, Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Known as a picturesque location along the Shonan coastline, it has been cherished by many for generations. Ukiyo-e artist Ando Hiroshige depicted this area in his work titled "Shinshu Miura Akiya no Sato," showing Mount Fuji in the distance, highlighting its long history as a scenic spot.
A pointed rock rises from the sea, with a pine tree spreading its branches on a small islet just offshore. On a clear day, you can see Enoshima Island and even Mount Fuji in the distance, creating a scene that resembles a Japanese painting. While lively during the day, it transforms into a world of tranquility at dusk. The ever-changing expressions captivate the hearts of all who visit.
Dusk is particularly beautiful, with the silhouette of Tateishi Rock reflected in the orange-hued sky and sea—a breathtaking sight. The combination of the sunset sky and Mount Fuji is truly spectacular.
Around Akiya's Tateishi Rock, there are well-maintained walking paths and observation decks, allowing you to enjoy the scenery from various angles. A stylish Italian restaurant is located next to the parking lot, offering a chance to savor a meal while overlooking Sagami Bay.
