Tahara Beach
This beach is located about a seven-minute walk from JR Kii-Tahara Station. Proceed southeast from the station until you arrive at Taharachuzaijo-mae Intersection, cross the bridge, and go a bit further. The approximately 400-meter-wide beach is notable for gentle waters and a quiet atmosphere provided by the breakwaters of nearby Tahara Fishing Port, which keeps out the ocean waves. The beautiful sandy beach is opened at the end of June each year. Visitors can also enjoy cuisine made with local ingredients, hot springs, and other amenities at the nearby Arafune Resort.
