The town of the moon, the sea, and Ryoma. A relaxing trip with spectacular views at Katsurahama

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip

Katsurahama Beach, located on Kochi City's Urato Peninsula, is a spectacular spot featuring arched white sand, pine forests, and the raging waves of the Pacific Ocean. 🌊
Long ago, it was known as a "famous moon viewing spot." At dusk and on full moon nights, the sky and sea blend together to create a mystical landscape. 🌕
As you walk along the beach, you'll see the statue of Sakamoto Ryoma gazing majestically out at the Pacific Ocean, a sight that will have you standing tall and inspiring.
The surrounding area is also packed with attractions, including the Katsurahama Aquarium, the Kochi Prefectural Sakamoto Ryoma Memorial Museum, and the power spot Kaizumi Shrine!
On the day I visited, I stood next to the statue, feeling the sea breeze, and enjoyed the view of the ocean from the same perspective. It was a truly memorable experience.
Perfect for a romantic getaway with your partner, or immersing yourself in history and nature on your own. 💑👤
It's a place that will remain deeply etched in your travel memories.
Access is about a 40-50 minute bus ride from Kochi Station. 🚌
Take the Tosaden Transportation Katsurahama Line or My Yu Bus and get off at Katsurahama or Ryoma Memorial Hall.
By car, it's about a 30 minute drive, and parking is available. 🚗
A memorable journey where nature and history intersect.
Be sure to add Katsurahama to your next travel destination!
