Cape Manazuru is a cape located in Manazuru Town, Kanagawa Prefecture.
Located at the tip of the elongated Manazuru Peninsula, it is also a famous sunrise spot🤗

What you can see from Cape Manazuru is a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean and the Izu Peninsula !
In addition, you can see islands such as Izu Oshima and the Boso Peninsula🏖

The first photo shows a tourist facility at Cape Manazuru.
Please feel free to buy souvenirs or take a break at this facility😊

The Endo Shell Museum is also attached to this facility.
The museum has approximately 50,000 shellfish on display, so if you are interested, please check them out😳🐚

Also, Cape Manazuru has a unique topography, so it can be seen from many different places.
For example, from Hatsushima off the coast of Atami📸
Or from the Jukoku Pass Observation Deck on the top of a mountain on the Izu Peninsula😄

When I took the photo above, it was just the time of low tide, so I could clearly see ❝Mitsuishi Rocks❞ off the coast of Cape Manazuru✨

Cape Manazuru is a recommended scenic spot, as you can take a detour on your way to Atami, a popular resort area near Tokyo !
