Pray for Safe Travels at the Shrine Known for the Meoto Iwa (Married Rocks)

About this spot

Located just beside Futami-ura Beach, this shrine is renowned nationwide for the "Meoto Iwa" (Married Rocks)—two large and small rocks floating offshore, bound together by a sacred rope. The Meoto Iwa symbolizes love and marital harmony and is also popular as a stunning scenic spot offering views of the sunrise and Mt. Fuji. The grounds are lined with countless frog figurines, which capture children's interest along the pilgrimage path. Stopping by before entering the water is a local tradition—it allows you to pray for safe travels for the entire day before heading to the beach.
