Travelers who join this tour will experience the breathtaking beauty of Cape Kamui, one of Hokkaido’s most striking natural landmarks. Located on the Shakotan Peninsula, this narrow cape stretches dramatically into the Sea of Japan, offering panoramic views of turquoise waters and rugged cliffs. A scenic walking trail leads visitors along a ridgeline to the tip of the cape, where the iconic white lighthouse stands. Along the way, they'll be surrounded by untouched coastal nature, wildflowers in season, and steep drops that create a sense of awe and wonder. The guide will share legends of the Ainu goddess who gave the cape its name and explain the area's cultural and geographical significance. On clear days, the views are endless, and the sea shimmers in vibrant shades of blue, known locally as "Shakotan Blue." This peaceful, windswept setting is a perfect place for photography, reflection, and escaping into nature. It’s a highlight for those seeking hidden beauty in Hokkaido.
