Just below Nijo Parking Area is Anego-no-Hama, an arch-shaped beach, 1.1km long and 20m wide. Walking on it, you hear a unique squeaking (singing sand) from quartz particles rubbing together, indicating a clean beach. Once silent, it resumed singing after coastal cleanup efforts. It’s also a popular surfing spot, attracting many surfers on good wave days.
