Adventure World

Joyce

Buy one get one free, and save half of it immediately. The project inside also needs to be charged extra. It is not a one-ticket system. If it is all inclusive, the Bin family panda inside can be cute and love, actively open for eating and broadcasting, and it is still a pretty good paradise. No disappointment

Senjojiki Rock Plateau

There are large rocks as far as the eye can see. It's fun to run up and down! There are traces of tides and marine life on the rocks, which are natural. It's unexpectedly fun

Shirarahama Beach

西等记忆

The seawater is green. It was early in the morning of New Year so there were not many people. Two families were walking on the beach with their children. It was very nice! The beach was easy to walk on because it had just rained. If it was sunny, it would be very slippery! There is also a small pavilion for free foot bathing nearby! I also found a dolphin-shaped shower device by chance.

Sandanbeki Cliffs

Be sure to go to the cave, the elevator goes down 36 meters, close to the sea level, the waves are blooming. 1500 is very worth it! The rock is a mine, the color is bright, the first time in this life.

Engetsu Island

横竖是二温小迪

It is said that in winter or summer, you have a chance to see the sun set at the gap of Engetsujima. I made a temporary strategy and did not study the camera position or time. I searched on Google and came here to check in. It is not far from Shirarahama Beach, so I just went along to play. It was almost sunset when we arrived there. While waiting for the sunset, we can also soak in the foot bath next to it. We saw a few people on a dam and thought they were waiting for the sunset with us. We walked into the area and found that they were fishing. As the sun set, the light became more and more beautiful. At the same time, I also found that I was standing in the wrong position. Obviously, I couldn’t take pictures of the sun passing through the hole in this position, and I didn’t have time to adjust. Although I didn’t see the fantasy, the scenery was still good. Friends who encounter good weather, promise me to check the best camera position, don’t be like me, and navigate here stupidly.

Shirahama Midsea Observation Tower CORAL PRINCESS (SHIRAHAMA KEY TERRACE HOTEL SEAMORE)

徐团

This outlook tower is the Whiteside Chittes Hillmore Hotel, but it is not free. There is a coupon for the introduction fee in the room. After purchasing the tour ticket, you have to check the coupon through the hotel's hot spring area to go to the passage. Although the outlook tower is in the sea, it is not far from the shore. If you are interested, you can go and see it. Follow a spiral staircase to the sea below, there is also a mini "underwater world". The staff at the coupon inspection office told the children to remember to count the stairs, and there will be small gifts if they are correct (remember that it is a 60-level ladder, and the small gift forgot what it is).

Kumano-Kodo Nakahechi Pilgrimage Route

M57***87

The hiking experience of Kumano Kodo is very unique and unforgettable. The scenery along this ancient road is picturesque and the natural landscape is rich and diverse. During the hike, I felt the tranquility and magnificence of nature. At the same time, the facilities of this ancient road are well maintained, and the signboards are clear and concise, which provides great convenience for hikers. In addition, the local services and catering are also quite good, and the food is fresh and delicious. In general, Kumano Kodo is a hiking route that combines natural beauty and comfortable facilities. It is worth recommending to all people who love outdoor activities.

Sandanbeki Cave

Sandanbeki Cliff in Wakayama, Japan offers breathtaking coastal views of the Pacific Ocean. With its rugged cliffs, historical significance, and accessible facilities, it's a must-visit destination for nature lovers and history enthusiasts. The cliff features nature trails, observation decks, and a sightseeing elevator that descends into caves used by pirates. It's a serene and picturesque attraction that showcases the beauty of Japan's coastline.
