Tottori Sand Dunes + The Sand Museum + Uradome Coast 🚌Transportation guide: Recommended transportation app: Google Maps 1️⃣Tottori Station ➡️ Tottori Sand Dunes (Bus) I took the Kirin Lion Loop Bus. The fixed fare for adults is JPY 300. Board the bus from the back door and get off from the front door to pay (if you have a JR Pass, you can show it to the driver when you get off to ride for free). There are many specialty stores near Tottori Sand Dunes. You can take a look. 🌟Highly recommended Tottori Sand Dunes. Very impressive! 2️⃣Tottori Sand Dunes ➡️ The Sand Museum (Walk) Experience the amazing craftsmanship of artists from around the world. 3️⃣The Sand Museum ➡️ Uradome Coast (Bus) There is a torii gate ⛩️ on the island along the coast, but Uradome Coast is far from Tottori Station and is in a remote location. If you are in a hurry, it is not recommended to go. ⚠️When you board the bus, you need to take a numbered ticket from the machine at the back door. Then, when you get off, pay according to the price on the screen at the front door that corresponds to the number on the ticket.

💙Urado Coast is located in Iwami Town, on the eastern side of Tottori Prefecture. It boasts a stunning 15-kilometer coastline. The blue sea, lush pine trees, scattered islands, and traditional Japanese torii shrines create a picturesque scene reminiscent of a natural bonsai garden. 😍 🌊 The water here is exceptionally clear, with visibility reportedly reaching up to 25 meters! Can you imagine? It's as if the wonders of the underwater world are right before your eyes. On clear days, the sea displays various shades of blue, and schools of fish appear to be flying in the air, creating an unreal beauty. 🤩 🎈 There are plenty of fun activities along Urado Coast. You can take a sightseeing boat to admire the cliffs, caves, arches, and white sandy beaches up close, enjoying the gentle sea breeze on your face. 💨 🛥 You can also take an island-hopping cruise, like a moving observation deck. For those seeking more excitement, try fishing or kayaking. The feeling of being close to the sea while paddling is indescribable. The shallow waters and white sandy beaches are perfect for strolling or playing. 😉 🧊 If you get tired, there are cafes nearby offering stunning sea views. Step into one, order a cup of coffee, sit by the window, and enjoy the delicious coffee while taking in the beautiful scenery outside. It's truly relaxing. ☕ Urado Coast is a must-visit destination, whether you're traveling with a partner, on a family vacation, or having fun with friends.

About 10km northeast from the Tottori Sand Dunes along the bay coastline, Uradome Coast in Iwami Town, located at the northeastern tip of Tottori Prefecture, is a ria coast stretching about 15km from east to west, and with its complex topography, small islands of all sizes, and marine blue sea, it is one of Tottori's most scenic spots, like a painting reminiscent of Matsushima. I was honestly surprised at how beautiful the sea on the Japan Sea side of Tottori was! The clear tropical marine blue is comparable to the ocean of the tropics. By the way, this Uradome Coast is listed in a number of prestigious scenic spots, including: ■ San'in Kaigan National Park ■ 100 Views of Japan ■ 100 Best White Sand and Green Pine Coasts in Japan ■ 100 Best Beaches in Japan ■ 100 Best Tourist Sites in Japan during the Heisei Era ■ San'in Kaigan Geopark It is supposedly a hiking trail from Ajiro Port on the western end to Kamogaiso on the east, but when I visited in July 2021, there were spider webs everywhere and it was full of weeds, making it difficult to walk... It is unclear whether it was the off-season or if it just so happened to be before cleaning, but the views glimpsed from key points were full of spectacular views. At the "Shirowara Kaigan" observation deck in a corner of the eastern end of Uradome Coast, there was a memorable photo spot with a punning dad joke, "Take a photo!", which is typical of Tottori Prefecture. #tripDomesticTravel #TottoriPrefecture #Breathtaking views #Seaside views

#0yentripnovember There is free parking and a convenience store nearby! There are also public toilets and beach houses, and it is well-maintained as a swimming beach! The white sand beach is wide and the sea is shallow, so it is easy to play! The water is also very clear, so please go and check it out!! 📍Iwami-cho, Iwami-gun, Tottori Prefecture 💰Free parking

While cycling along the coast, I found many small hills with observation points that looked like they had great views. I walked and climbed them, and the view from the top was just as beautiful as I expected... It's a shame that the weather gradually got worse, but Tottori is beautiful from any angle, and the mountains and sea look different depending on the angle you look at them from, so it was a really fun bike ride along the coast! I recommend this hidden gem to everyone. There were no tourists, only local people from the fishing port! 📍Address: Ajiro, Iwami-cho, Iwami-gun, Tottori Prefecture 681-0074 #0 yen trip

Tottori is famous for its beautiful cherry blossoms, especially in Uradome Park which is located along the coast. Cherry blossoms usually bloom in early to mid April, but the exact date can vary each year depending on the weather. At Uradome Park, visitors can enjoy stunning views of cherry blossoms against the backdrop of the beach beautiful Apart from that, Tottori also has several other locations nearby that offer stunning cherry blossom views, such as Tottori Hanakairo Park and Daisen-Oki National Park.#cherryblossom2024

#Sakura2024 The Uradome Coast in Tottori Prefecture, Japan is the easternmost continuous coastline of Tottori. The unique natural seawalls, caves and jagged rocks here were formed by sea erosion. The sea water is extremely clear and the transparency is as deep as 25 meters. It is rated as Japan's most advanced scenery. Taking a sightseeing boat is one of the most convenient and easy ways to enjoy this coast. There are two types of sightseeing boats, one is larger and sealed, so it is more stable; the other is a small exploration boat. Skilled boatmen will steer the boat into the cave, allowing passengers to see the strange rocks, wind caves and magnificent sea erosion landscapes of the Uradome Coast up close. When you come to Uradome Coast, you must not miss tasting the local fresh seafood🐟🦐🐙🦑. The crabs in Tottori are particularly delicious and famous, and different types are abundant in different seasons. This time, we went to a restaurant at the sightseeing boat boarding point to taste fresh seafood just caught from the sea. It was truly authentic and tasty. 🚝Transportation: Go to JR Iwami Station, then take a bus to the sightseeing boat boarding area ⭐️Tips: Iwami Town, where Uradome Coast is located, is relatively remote, and the JR and bus services are sparse. It is recommended to pay attention to the schedule in advance and plan your time well. In addition, sightseeing boats are temporarily closed in winter and in bad weather, so it is recommended to pay attention to the latest news and schedules on the official website. #JapanTravel #OverseasTravel #Tottori #JapanAttractions

You can enjoy a tour of the coastline with its vivid sea from Ajiro Port, located near Tottori City, Tottori Prefecture. The large island tour boat costs 1,400 yen for a 40-minute cruise. The small Uradome boat costs 2,500 yen for a 50-minute cruise. Take a leisurely cruise along the beautiful Uradome Coast from Ajiro Port to Shirobara Coast. The water is 25 meters deep and the water is amazingly clear! Uradome Coast is one of the 100 best beaches in Japan, and is a scenic spot that represents eastern Tottori Prefecture, also known as the Matsushima of the West. In contrast to the feminine and gentle landscape of Matsushima, the coast is attractive for its masculine roughness carved by the waves of the Sea of ​​Japan. It consists of 166 islands of various sizes, 16 caves, and 6 caves, and its unique topography is rare even in Japan. It is also a member of the San'in Coast Geopark, a global geopark. The boat rocks less than smaller boats, so you can enjoy a leisurely cruise. For those who want to experience nature up close, we recommend the small boat "Uradome-go."
