I went sightseeing and strolled on the right half of Kamome Island. From Bottle Rock, there is a bridge promenade to the reef area. From there, I climbed a hill to the observation area of the peninsula on the left, and returned to the parking lot on the central stairs. Summer It was hot on the spot, but it felt good. Finally, I went down the rock tunnel and went sightseeing at Ebisu Beach.

　There was Kamome Island at the end of the city of Esashi Town. There is Kaiyo Maru in the sea beyond the city, and it is beyond that. It has the name "island", but it was connected to land by sandbars. Esashi Town has a prosperous history of herring fishing, but on this Kamome Island, there was a mooring pillar of Kitamaebune that made you feel its history, and Itsukushima Shrine was also there.

　Kamome Island, which used to be the stage for herring fishing and Kitamae Ship trade. In the past, 々 was called Benten Island. A sandbar was formed on an island on the sea and it was shaped like a land. It is said that the history of Esashi began on this island. There were strange rocks on the coast and Itsukushima Shrine on the island.

It's sunny and it feels good if you have time

It's very close to Kaiyo Maru, and it's not like an island because it doesn't go by boat or there is no bridge, but you can relax.
