    An artificial island located a 30-minute walk from Koshien Station on the Hanshin Main Line in Hyogo Prefecture. There's a park located at the beach which has a huge, 33-meter long slide; exercise facilities; a free to use multipurpose field (reservation required to use on weekends and holidays); shellfish gathering and surfer areas; and a barbecue space. There's also Accordia Garden Koshienhama, a golf practice facility with fully automated teeing and a sand trap practice area. There's also a rubber-ball baseball ground nearby, and the beach area is perfect for a whole day spent working up a sweat playing sports and enjoying recreational outdoor activities.

Hyogo prefecture stretches from the north coast to the south coast on the western end of the popular Kansai region, encompassing verdant mountains, urban beaches, and fantastic historical sights. The prefecture’s main attractions lie along the south coast at Kobe, the prefectural capital, a pretty harbor city best known for its production of the renowned Kobe beef, and Himeji, the home of Himeji Castle, one of the country’s most beautifully preserved feudal castles, perched magically atop a hill.
