Tips
The 150-vehicle parking lot can fill up quickly on weekends or around the Obon holiday, so arriving with some buffer time is recommended. Food vendors are not permanent, so it's best to prepare drinks and snacks in advance at Michi no Eki Nishime or similar locations.

Best time to visit
The afternoon from 1 PM onward has higher temperatures and warmer seawater, offering plenty of time to swim until evening.
