HIGHLIGHTS in Kyoto by the Sea's TANGO COAST
•The region is home to numerous, naturally occurring hot springs. Soak in the healing waters and look out on the sea from the bath.
• Ine Bay: Japan Heritage locations with 230 boat houses dating back to the 1800’s. It is an active fishing village where you will find warm people continuing to live traditionally.
•Tateiwa, a rare volcanic rock formation with beautiful beach and part of the UNESCO San’in Kaigan Global Geopark (a short walk from the 6th century burial mounds overlooking the Sea of Japan).
•A variety of restaurants dot the coastline, many of which specialize in fresh, local seafood and produce. These are 100% local meals, including locally sourced fish, vegetables, fruit, rice, tea, sake, beer and even some varieties of meat.
•The region is home to more than ten sake breweries, with a number of them residing right along the coast. Many of them offer sake tastings with no reservation necessary.
