View the Spectacular Ago Bay from Along Pearl Road

About this spot

Yokoyama Observatory is a signature viewpoint of Ise-Shima, offering a panoramic view of the complex ria coastline of Ago Bay with its floating pearl culture rafts. The observatory features well-maintained wooden deck walking paths where you can leisurely view the intricate terrain and small islands characteristic of a ria coastline from an elevated position. Known as one of the finest viewpoints in Ise-Shima National Park, this location offers a different scale of experience compared to the beach you'll visit later, allowing you to take in Ise-Shima's sea from a unique perspective.

Season & hours

Name: 阿児の松原海水浴場

Date & time: 7/18 (Sat)–8/31 (Mon)

Venue: 志摩市・阿児の松原海水浴場

阿児の松原海水浴場は、志摩市阿児町にある黒松林と白砂の対比が美しい海水浴場です。2026年は7月18日(土)から8月31日(月)まで開設され、遠浅で波が穏やかな浜辺は小さな子ども連れでも安心して水遊びができます。名前の由来にもなっている松原は夏の強い日差しを和らげる木陰をつくり、ビーチタオルを広げてひと休みするのにも重宝します。海の家は約3軒営業しており、軽食や休憩、シャワーの利用が可能。トイレは2ヶ所とも無料で使え、ビーチ用車いすの用意もあるため、家族みんなで無理なく1日を過ごせるビーチです。

Tips

遊泳は無料ですが、駐車場とシャワーの利用は有料です。松原の木陰は休憩に便利な一方、砂浜そのものは夏の日差しでかなり熱くなるのでビーチサンダルは必携。海の家は数が多くないため、混雑期は早めに休憩場所を確保しておくと安心です。着替えの時間を見込んで、切り上げは16時45分ごろを目安にしましょう。

Tips

It's a few minutes' walk from the parking lot to the observation deck. In summer, there is little shade, so bringing a hat and drinks is recommended. The observatory has several viewing spots, so take time to explore if you have it.

Best time to visit

Approximately 45 minutes required. In the morning, the air is clear and you can see distant islands crisply.
