Shirahama Beach is located in Shimoda City on the Izu Peninsula. It is a popular beach with white sand and emerald green water, where you can also enjoy surfing.
Shirahama Ohama Beach is a beautiful beach that represents Izu, located in Shimoda City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It features a vast white sand beach that stretches for about 770 meters and a highly transparent emerald green sea, and the scenery is reminiscent of a resort area overseas. The water quality is also very good, and it has been certified as "AA rank," so you can enjoy swimming in the sea with peace of mind. The shallow water and gentle waves make it popular with families with small children.
This beach is also known as a mecca for surfing, and on days with good waves it is crowded with many surfers. The swimming area and surfing area are separated, so you can enjoy each area safely. The beach is also equipped with showers, toilets, beach houses, and other facilities to ensure a comfortable stay.
Not only during the summer swimming season, but also in other seasons, you can enjoy the charms of each season, such as strolling on the beautiful white sand beach and relaxing while looking at the sea. Especially at dusk, the sky and sea are dyed orange, creating a fantastic view.
[Trivia]
At Shirahama Ohama Beach, an event called the "Shirahama Sea Festival and Fireworks Display" is held every year in late July, and includes a fireworks display over the sea.
[Hidden Spots]
On both sides of the beach, there are slightly rocky areas, which are hidden spots where you can enjoy playing on the rocks. You can find small crabs and fish, and it's a great place for children to experience nature.
