What Kamui Cape made so popular is a spectacular view looking over from the cape dynamically shooting out into the open sea. There is a trail to reach the tip of the cape from the parking, what is called “a path of Charenka”. You will see a great view of the blue ocean walking throught the path.

You can delight the magnificent view of the Sea of Japan and untouched natural landscape. You can look out over 300-degree view from the path, so that you are able to scan seemingly a little bit rounded horizon.

When you look down the coast from the tip of the cape, you will find a big rock called “Kamui Rock”. That rock is said to an embodiment of a girl standing under the crystal clear water.
