2026 Makino Sunny Beach (Takagihama) (マキノサニービーチ（高木浜）): Full-Day Course

A full-day course centered on Makino Sunny Beach (Takagihama) (マキノサニービーチ（高木浜）) in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture, open from Wednesday, July 1 to Monday, August 31, 2026, letting you enjoy the entire northern area of Lake Biwa. In the morning, walk through the green tunnel of Metasequoia Namiki (メタセコイア並木), then take a deep breath amid the wide-open highland scenery of Makino Highland (マキノ高原). For lunch, savor local flavors while gazing out at Lake Biwa at Roadside Station Makino Oisaka Toge (道の駅マキノ追坂峠). The highlight is Makino Sunny Beach in the afternoon. With parking for about 300 cars, it's a beach popular with families for its shallow, gentle waters. Swimming is free, and the water quality and calm waves make it perfect for a first lake-swimming experience. Enjoying the water to your heart's content until evening will make for a summer memory of savoring both the highlands and the lake, all in one day. Why not grab your swimsuit and towel and head out for a summer at Biwako Takashima?
