About

Ayajin Beach is a scenic beach with large and small rocks, clear sea, and clean white sand, making it well suited for family summer outings. The fine sand and shallow water, about 1.5 to 2 m deep up to 30 m from shore, make swimming safe. The beach is opened only for a limited period each year in coordination with a military unit. Visitors can also enjoy fishing alongside swimming, and the number of summer visitors has been increasing every year.
