Kamui Cape

80-meter cliffs jutting from Shakotan Peninsula, 300-degree horizon views

Kamui Cape, jutting into the sea from the northwestern part of Shakotan Peninsula, is a cape surrounded by 80-meter-high cliffs with breathtaking views of Shakotan Blue.
The "Charenkano Komichi" trail from the parking lot to the cape's tip is an approximately 770-meter path with some ups and downs. Bamboo grass grows thick underfoot, the sea breeze caresses your face, and below spreads a crystal-clear blue sea. After about 20 minutes of walking, you arrive at the tip—a viewpoint with 300-degree panoramic views. Standing on the cliff, looking right or left, an endless expanse of blue sea and sky stretches before you. In the silence broken only by the sound of waves, you'll notice the horizon appears curved.
The blue of the sea changes expression with the time of day and weather. On sunny days, you'll see gradations of blue ranging from deep indigo to transparent emerald green spreading before you. On windy days, white spray crashes against the rocks, and the scent of the tide tickles your nose. Here lies an overwhelming natural experience where you can feel the roundness of the Earth with your entire body.
