Hiburi Island

This island is located in the Uwa Sea to the west of Uwajima City. In olden times, it was known as the base for Fujiwara no Sumitomo, who led pirates in the Inland Sea. The uniquely winding shapes of the inlets, the sea caves, and the rock formations make this a scenic area worth seeing. In addition to rock fishing and line fishing, the island offers a swimming beach that is open in the summer.
