    Yamaguchi Hagi-shi Horiuchi
    "This beach of white sand and green pines spreads through Kita-Nagato Kaigan Quasi-National Park. Named one of the Selection of best 100 beach of Japan, it stretches from the Hagi Castle ruins, past Hagi Bay, all the way to Hamasaki Commercial Docks. The pure white sand beach offers a view of not only Hagi Castle ruins, but also mountain and islands off the coast including Mt. Kasa, Ohshima, Aishima and more. The sea here is extraordinarily clear, and in summer it's a huge draw for beachgoers. The pine grove extends from Kikugahama Beach, and has long been a famous scenic spot, that was even described in Waka (Japanese poems) as ""Abu no Matsubara"" in the old days.. This is also a famous spot to watch the sun set."

Yamaguchi Areas

Heading west along Japan’s largest island, Honshu, the very last prefecture you’ll reach is Yamaguchi, separated from Kyushu by a small strip of water known as the Kanmon Straits, which the far-reaching harbor city Shimonoseki looks over. With water at every turn, the seafood of Yamaguchi is an indisputable highlight, and we’re not talking just the usual fish dishes - the notorious fugu, or puffer fish, is a Japanese delicacy that was discovered in Yamaguchi prefecture, making it the best place to try it out.
