All Trip Moments about Shakotan District
Kamui Misaki
Does Kamui Misaki only go as far as Otaru? If you drive about an hour northwest from Otaru, you'll find one of the most beautiful capes in Hokkaido. It's a walking trail that takes about an hour round trip, offering breathtaking scenery—a true blessing to experience. Just walking along this path and taking in the view is enough to bring happiness. I look forward to the next time, hoping to catch the sunset here.
Cape Kamui
Located on the western coast of Hokkaido, Cape Kamui is a stunning cape surrounded by cliffs and features a hiking trail. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views of the vast ocean and coastal landscapes, including the famous "Shakotan Blue," a mesmerizing shade of blue that stretches as far as the eye can see. 👀
※ Please note that during the winter season, only certain areas are accessible. However, the scenery is still worth enjoying.
Additionally, Hokkaido's coastal areas are dotted with numerous rocks and capes, making it a delightful destination for a scenic drive! 🚗
From late March onwards, there is less snow and fewer visitors, allowing you to experience the beautiful scenery under clear skies in the chilly weather. Don't miss this spectacular view! 🪐

On a sunny day, the breathtakingly beautiful blue gradation spreads out.

The approximately 770m path that continues from the entrance to the cape to the tip feels like walking between the sky and the sea. You can enjoy a spectacular hike while feeling the breeze!
✅ The historic "gate forbidden to women" ⛩️
A traditional gate located halfway up the cape. It tells us the history of the area where women were once forbidden to enter.
✅ Kamui Rock towering over the cliff🪨
"Kamui Rock", which can be seen at the very tip of the cape, is a mysterious presence also known as the rock where gods reside. You will be overwhelmed by the power of nature!
✅ The scenery changes with the seasons🍃❄️🌸
Fresh greenery in spring, blue skies in summer, sunsets in autumn, and snow-covered areas in winter. One of the pleasures is seeing the scenery change depending on the season you visit.

Hokkaido ~ Cape Kamui ~
Hokkaido Shakotan Peninsula
Cape Kamui is famous for its beautiful sea✨
It's also famous for sea urchin fishing, and you can only eat Shakotan sea urchins for three months from June to August!!
It's a little pricey, but if you're traveling to Hokkaido during this time, why not take a little trip to the Shakotan Peninsula❣️❣️
Kamui Misaki Souvenir Shop
#FebruaryTravelSupportEvent #JapanTravel
It was so hot at Kamui Misaki in Shakotan that I only spent time at the souvenir shop.
There was a pretty colored ice cream, so I tried one.
You can order by pressing the menu you want at the vending machine and paying with cash.
I was able to order thanks to a Japanese tourist!
If you go to Kamui Misaki, try the pretty colored ice cream too!

#JapanTravel
JapanTravel Hokkaido ⭐️Kamuymisaki Natural Park⭐️ 神威岬自然公園 is a park in Shakotan. Even if you enjoy it slowly from the parking lot, you can go back and forth to Cape Kamui in about an hour. You can see the beautiful sea and coastline while walking. The emerald sea color is so beautiful, so if you have time, I recommend you visit it.

Japan Nusa Penida?!
I came on the day when it was bad weather but on a good weather, you should definitely come here! The shakotan observation deck provides you a beautiful seascape of the Shakotan Blue ocean and some odd looking rocks. In my opinion, it looks pretty similar to Bali Nusa Penida Kelingking beach with famous T-rex shaped rock. What do you think? However, do note that the path down to the beach may be a little steep. #cherryblossom2024
