Cape Noshappu (ノシャップ岬)
#japantrip
Cape Noshappu is famous for its spectacular sunsets over the Sea of Japan. The lighthouse here, with its red and white stripes, adds to the photogenic beauty of the place. A nearby aquarium and science museum make this a family-friendly destination. In the summer, the sunsets are unforgettable, casting vibrant hues of orange and pink across the sky. It’s also a good spot to observe the dramatic, stormy seas during winter months. Don’t miss the seafood stalls selling fresh catches right on the coast.

If you can't see the sunrise, go see the sunset? There are several places in Wakkanai to enjoy the sunset. The most popular is the , the name is derived from the language of the Ainu, meaning the cape that stands out like a squat and the place where the waves splash. The Chinese characters are written in the wild. Cold cloth.
In the winter, the sunset time is at 4pm. At three o'clock, I drove to the northwestern tip of Wakkanai. The clouds were thick. I already knew that I didn't have a chance to see the beautiful sunset, but I could see a little light when I arrived.
When the weather is good, you can see Lie Fuji and Rebun Island here. Not far from the Wakkanai lighthouse is 42.7 meters high, the second highest in Japan, the red and white stripes make people think of sailor suits.
