Tanedasshi Coast: Sea Walk with Black-tailed Gulls and Natural Grassland
A full-day seaside walk course through the highlights of Tanedasshi Coast in the Sanriku Fukko National Park, from Kabutashima Shrine (蕪島神社) where black-tailed gulls swarm, to the Tanedasshi Natural Grassland (種差天然芝生地) where natural grass spreads to the water's edge. Learn about Hachinohe's sea at the Fisheries Science Museum Marient, take in panoramic views of the Pacific from the castle-like Ashikegasaki Observation Deck (葦毛崎展望台), walk barefoot along the Osuka Beach (大須賀海岸) famous for its singing sand, and finish with a picnic on the lush natural grassland. Perfect for families with elementary school children who love wildlife and outdoor play—a day at the seaside engaging all five senses.
