You can see “Todo Island” (uninhabited island) in front of the wide expanse of ocean, and Cape Kanedanomisaki on the opposite shore, where you may be able to encounter wild spotted seals.

Cape Sukai with its gracefully arcing bays and steep cliffs, is located in the northwestern part of the island. Its greatest attraction is the cobalt blue sea that seems to peek down to the bottom of the ocean!
