You know, if I lived here, I would probably come here every day. It's such a cool and beautiful beach. There's a basketball court, a skateboard rink, an exercise section, huge sandy beach, a free shower, etc.

Just a short stroll from Kii-Tanabe station, you'll find our beloved Ogigahama Park, a perfect seaside escape. The park opens onto a beautiful, fan-shaped sandy beach with calm, clear waters ideal for a relaxing swim in the summer. It's a favorite local spot to catch a breathtaking sunset over the bay or simply unwind on the open lawns any time of year.
