Beach description
Due to the wide popularity in the high season, the beach is very crowded, and the houses along the coastline are booked for a long time to come. Adults choose a bay for swimming or scuba diving, while children can fly kites and build sand castles. Local hotels offer accommodation services, and also provide vacationers with food and drinks. Having seen enough of the reefs and having swum enough, you can go on an excursion to the local shrines or on an exciting journey through the caves. Some tourists come to the beach for surfing.
When is the best time to go?
If in the north of Japan, in Hokkaido, the weather in January-February is quite wintery, in the southern islands the temperature rarely drops below 20 degrees even in the cold season. In summer, the rainy season comes in Japan, when the humidity becomes almost one hundred percent, and the thermometer is at 30 to 40 degrees. Therefore, the best time to travel to Japan – is late spring or early autumn.
