Travelers who join this tour will experience the breathtaking beauty of Cape Kamui, one of Hokkaido’s most striking natural landmarks. Located on the Shakotan Peninsula, this narrow cape stretches dramatically into the Sea of Japan, offering panoramic views of turquoise waters and rugged cliffs. A scenic walking trail leads visitors along a ridgeline to the tip of the cape, where the iconic white lighthouse stands. Along the way, they'll be surrounded by untouched coastal nature, wildflowers in season, and steep drops that create a sense of awe and wonder. The guide will share legends of the Ainu goddess who gave the cape its name and explain the area's cultural and geographical significance. On clear days, the views are endless, and the sea shimmers in vibrant shades of blue, known locally as "Shakotan Blue." This peaceful, windswept setting is a perfect place for photography, reflection, and escaping into nature. It’s a highlight for those seeking hidden beauty in Hokkaido.

Shimamui Coast

At Shimamui Coast, travelers will be captivated by one of Hokkaido’s most breathtaking coastal landscapes. After a short walk through a narrow tunnel carved into the cliffs, the view opens up to a dramatic panorama of turquoise waters framed by steep, rugged cliffs. The name “Shimamui” comes from the Ainu word Suma Mui, meaning “Rock Bay,” and the scenery truly lives up to its name. From the observation deck, visitors can admire the clarity of the sea—ranked among Japan’s top waters—and see how the coastline remains untouched and wild. The waves crashing against jagged rocks below create a powerful, almost spiritual atmosphere. It’s a spot that feels far removed from the modern world. Your guide will share the natural and cultural history of the area, including Ainu legends and local fishing traditions. This is a perfect photo stop and a moment to truly appreciate the raw, untouched beauty of Hokkaido’s Shakotan Peninsula.
