Fuel up with a lunch of local ingredients and some specialty shopping
About this spot
A roadside station just a short drive from the Toju Shoin Ruins (藤樹書院跡), where the bounty of Takashima (高島) is gathered. Local vegetables and fruit, prepared dishes made with Omi beef (近江牛) and other specialties unique to Takashima (高島) are on display, and the attached restaurant serves set meals and soba made with local produce. Benches and rest areas are in place, making it just the right stop for a proper meal before your swim. Choosing souvenirs is enjoyable too.

Tips
道の駅 藤樹の里あどがわから車で15分ほど。営業は17時までなので、着替えの時間を見込んで16時45分ごろには切り上げるのがおすすめです。日陰が少ない場所もあるので、テントやパラソルがあると快適に過ごせます。売店の営業時間は現地の掲示で確認を。
Tips
About 15 minutes by car to SHIRAHIGE BEACH (白ひげビーチ). It gets crowded at lunchtime, so arriving around 12 o'clock keeps things smooth. There are cold desserts and ice cream too, perfect for a break on a hot day.
