Beach sights in Kansai

1. Shirara-hama

   • Shirahama, Japan
   • Sights › Beach

   Shirara-hama, the town's main beach, is famous for its white sand. If it reminds you of Australia, don't be surprised – the town had to import sand from Down Under after the original stuff washed away. This place is packed during July and August, but in the low season it can actually be quite pleasant. The beach is hard to miss, as it dominates the western side of town.
