Echizen Coast

Flow of the course

About this spot

A scenic area with dramatic cliffs plunging into the Japan Sea, popular as a scenic driving route. From the viewpoints, you can overlook the sea stretching to the horizon, and summer brings pleasant scents of tide pools and sea breeze. It's recommended to gaze at the direction of the ocean where tonight's fireworks will light up the sky during the day. Enjoy the sea views with your family in this leisurely atmosphere.

Tips

Several viewpoints are located about 10 minutes by car from the aquarium. Some areas have uneven ground, so for small children, choose a viewpoint with railings.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour required. As evening approaches, the colors of the sky and sea become increasingly beautiful.
