Its great feature is that it is surrounded by white limestone.In geology, limestone is said to have been produced in the late Permian period of the Paleozoic era, about 200 million years ago.The Shirosaki Coast in Wakayama Prefecture is rich in nature, and large flocks of black-tailed gulls, such as those seen at 3:03 in the video, fly here from spring to summer.In addition, Ocean Park is a well-known breeding ground for daffodils.<img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0354212000dze6oha64A6_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="ttd" imageid="26230947" sourcewidth="788" sourcehight="623">toretore marketToreTore Market is the largest seafood market in western Japan, directly operated by the Katada Fishery Cooperative. The market is filled with local fresh fish caught from Susami Town and Kushimoto Coast, high-quality red sea bream raised by the Fishery Cooperative, and fresh catches from major fishing ports across Japan. If the timing is right, you can also buy Kishu's famous "KenKen bonito" and the quite rare "mochi bonito".ToreTore Market holds a grand tuna butchering show every day. The butcher uses superb knife skills to cut dozens of kilograms of Honma tuna and Katsuura tuna into small pieces of different parts such as big belly meat and middle belly meat. The whole process is full of energy, and the tuna is cut and sold right away.In addition to buying a variety of seafood and local agricultural and sideline products, eating seafood Food and Beverages is also a great pleasure when visiting the market. You can enjoy seafood rice bowls and sashimi platters filled with fresh fish and shellfish at the Food and Beverages court "ToreTore Yokocho", or you can take the seafood and other ingredients purchased at the market to the "BBQ area" to grill and eat them immediately.There are many tourist attractions around ToreTore Market. The nearby "Kata Fishing Pond" provides a complete set of fishing equipment and tools, so you can experience the fun of sea fishing even if you come empty-handed. There is also a day Two-way bathing facility "ToreTore-no-Yu", where you can enjoy Shirahama Onsen, one of the three major ancient springs in Japan, in an open-air bath overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The market is full of Entertainment and leisure elements and is worth a visit.<img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0350n12000dze77i6EBA4_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="ttd" imageid="26231689" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="667">Shirarahama Beach is a 620m long arc of pure white, smooth sand. The secret of the beach's beautiful white sand is that the sand is made of siliceous sandstone, which is as white as snow and brightly colored, and is the raw material of glass, crushed into fine grains by the waves. Wakayama Prefecture has been working on “beach nourishment,” or adding sand to beaches, since 1989 and is currently using sand from Perth, Australia, to preserve the beauty of Shirara Beach. Shirarahama Beach has also been selected as one of the top 100 beaches and 100 best beaches in Japan. <img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0355l12000dze73i035E1_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="ttd" imageid="26231745" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="667">Sandanbeki is a cliff about 50 meters high and stretches for about 2 kilometers. Long ago, it was a lookout for fishermen to watch the passing ships and explore the fish schools. It was also called "Kidan". "Kidan" is pronounced the same as "Sandan" in Japanese, so over time it evolved into "Sandanbeki". Here you can see the spectacular scene of the Kuroshio violently hitting the rocks and stirring up huge waves.Sandanbeki was also selected as the "Lovers' Sacred Place" in Wakayama Prefecture in April 2016. There is a heart-shaped monument and a pink mailbox near the observation deck, which attracts many lovers to go here.<img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0352z12000dze7iqw678C_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="ttd" imageid="26231983" sourcewidth="900" sourcehight="675">Large bedrock reminiscent of pebblesThe huge white bedrock spreads out against the backdrop of the blue Pacific Ocean, and over the years it has been eroded by the raging waves, creating a landscape that looks like a pile of rocks. The sunset over the horizon is truly a spectacular sight. There is "Seafood Restaurant Senjo" where you can dine while looking out over Senjojiki and the magnificent Pacific Ocean, and "Akane Senjo Teahouse" where you can buy Nanki Shirahama specialties.<img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/100f1f000001gq9yd3A9F_Z_1000_0.jpg" source="gs" imageid="289869648" sourcewidth="4626" sourcehight="3085">Engetsujima is a familiar symbol of Shirahama.Officially known as "Takashima", it is a small island floating on the seashore, about 130m long from north to south, about 35m long from east to west, and 25m high. However, due to the moon-shaped hole in the center of the island, it is affectionately called the "Moon Cave".The sunset at Engetsujima has been chosen as one of the top 100 sunsets in Japan and the sunset is so beautiful that you can even see the sunset in a cave during spring and autumn.
