千里浜なぎさドライブウェイ

Chirihama Nagisa Driveway

The Chirihama Nagisa Driveway is the only beach in Japan where you can drive along the shoreline. This approximately 8 km stretch of sandy beach is drivable due to the fine and compact sand particles. Driving next to the waves under a blue sky is an extraordinary experience that can be easily enjoyed with regular tires. During the day, you can also enjoy swimming and barbecues, and in the evening, you can take in the beautiful sunset over the horizon. Especially before dawn, a quiet and mystical landscape unfolds, and if you are lucky, you might witness the morning mist. Riding a motorcycle or a bicycle is also recommended, and you can rent bicycles at the Chirihama Rest House.
