  • Onjuku Beach
    Leisure / Hobbies
    Ogun-machi, Iizumi-gun, Chiba Prefecture
    This popular beach offers a beautiful contrast between the shining blue sea and its fine sand beach. Some say it’s the inspiration behind the children’s song “Moonlit Desert” (Tsuki-no-Sabaku). Statues with a moon motif memorializing the song have been installed on the beach. In addition to a beachside clubhouse in summer, it hosts various events such as fireworks displays and beach volleyball competitions. It gets packed with beach goers at these times.

    Located within Minami Boso Quasi-National Park, this beach boasts the best water quality in Katsuura City. With extremely clear waters and surprisingly mellow waves from the ocean, this beach has been included in both Japan’s Top 88 Baths and Japan’s Top 100 Baths, and what’s more, is one of Japan’s Top 100 Beaches thanks to its beautiful view. Several times a year you can see the beach connected to Watashima Island—normally floating in the bay—at low tide.

    Ohara Beach is a popular swimming beach that stretches for about 300 meters along the Hiariura Beach. Since the water is shallow for quite a distance from shore and the waves are gentle, it is a popular recreation area for families. Showers, toilet facilities, and parking lots are available, and the beach attracts lively crowds in the summer. The beach is also famous as a good place to see the sun rise on New Year's Day due to the sweeping view of the Pacific Ocean.
