    船橋の上に登ると、磯遊びもできる千田海岸などのいい眺めを楽しめる第一千倉丸が印象的な、広くてのんびりできる道の駅です。芝生広場に近い方の駐車場もゆったりしていて、海以外にも広場にじゃぶじゃぶ池などがあって、ファミリーにもお勧めです。 レストランやカフェ、お土産屋さんの並ぶ本館は季節によって水曜休館とありました。また見られませんでしたが花畑も魅力的なので、今度は春に行ったみたいと思います。

    テレビでもよく登場する道の駅です。確かにお土産のジャンルが豊富で充実していますが、枇杷に関するお土産の種類と品数は、隣接地に建つ「お百姓市場」の方が実は上回っていました。枇杷ソフトクリームも美味しかったですが、「お百姓市場」のものはミニサイズもあったりして、選択しやすいかも知れません。ただ、食べ比べていないので味の優劣は不明です。

    道の駅和田浦WA・O!は、直売所とレストランを指すようですが、駐車場に停めると屋外に展示されているシロナガスクジラの全身骨格(レプリカ?)が目にとまりました。先に直売所で鯨肉製品を物色した後に鯨資料館を訪問しました。道の駅和田浦WA・O!から鯨資料館を訪問し、剝製や鯨漁に関する展示物を鑑賞しました。お子さん連れも楽しめると思います。レストランでは「クジラ竜田揚げ定食」「和田浜クジラカレー」「和田浜...

    道の駅の名乗ってる割には釣りやサーフィン、ビーチに遊びに行くなら駐車料金1000円って言うのも変な話。駐車料金取るなら道の駅の看板は外すべき。施設は明らかに私的な利益の為の施設でこれは道の駅じゃない。レストランも閉鎖されてていい所ありませんでした。

The Boso Peninsula forms the main body of Chiba prefecture, and this is where you’ll find its endless warm water beaches and jagged mountains. Further inland, Narita - most famous as the home of Narita Airport - is a secret haven of tradition and history in the form of centuries-old Shinshoji Temple and quaint wooden Edo buildings.
