[Oita] The natural wonder of Matama Beach that appears only when certain conditions are met

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip

Bungo Takada City is located at the base of the Kunisaki Peninsula in Oita Prefecture

Facing the sea, Matama Beach is famous as the only spot in Oita where you can see the sunset sinking into the horizon

Moreover, you can only see the fantastic stripes of the tidal flats when the following conditions are met

- It is low tide before or after the spring tide
- The time of low tide and the time of sunset overlap
- It is sunny

Since the days are long in summer, there are relatively many opportunities to see it

Recommended dates and times are published monthly on the Bungotakada City official website
Please refer to them

The beach has the Matama Beach Koi Kana ♥ Yuhi Terrace, which also has a photo spot

The rooftop is an observation terrace, and the beach is so wide that it is never crowded with spectators
There is also a free parking lot along the road a short walk away, which is convenient

There is a similar view at Okoshiki Beach in Kumamoto, but
It is less crowded than that, easier to access, and more convenient, so I recommend it

📍Location: Usuno/Matama Beach, Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture
💰Free entry, free parking
🚗Access: About 30 minutes by car from JR Usa Station
