What makes it special
About Hirenezaki
- Observe the Potholes: The natural holes, some up to 1.3m in diameter, are a true wonder of nature.
- Check the Tides: It is highly recommended to check a tide table before visiting, as the holes are much easier to see during low tide.
- Panoramic Views: This is a spectacular spot for viewing the horizon of the Sea of Japan and the distant coastline.
- Explore History: We recommend visiting the nearby Daiganabana Kofun to experience a blend of natural beauty and ancient history.
