Lonely Planet review for Yokohama Bay
Locals say Yokohama Bay is the best sunset spot on the island. It certainly has the right orientation and an attractive mile-long sandy beach. Being the last sandy beach also helps the symbolic appreciation of the setting sun. The bay is so named for the large numbers of Japanese fishers who came here during the railroad days.
Winter brings huge pounding waves, making Yokohama a popular seasonal surfing and bodysurfing spot best left to the experts.
The surfing can be treacherous owing to submerged rocks, strong rips and dangerous shorebreak.
