Sanuki Tsuda Pine Grove and Hiketa Old Town Coastal Journey
A coastal journey through eastern Kagawa, visiting Tsuda Pine Grove (津田の松原), a celebrated scenic spot of white sand and blue pines, and the old town of Hiketa (引田), a harbor town that thrived on soy sauce brewing. Begin with a pleasant stroll along a 1 km beach lined with centuries-old pines, and from the hilltop of the Okusu Peninsula jutting into the Seto Inland Sea, enjoy a grand panorama overlooking Shodoshima (小豆島). In the afternoon, enjoy lunch at Sanshū Izutsuya Residence (讃州井筒屋敷) and explore the town streets, then search for souvenirs at the historic soy sauce brewery Kamebishi-ya (かめびし屋) with its beautiful brick-red walls. A full day to savor the sounds of waves, green pines, and harbor-town charm—perfect for nature lovers.
