Senjojiki

A large rock formation reminiscent of a wide rock pavement

The large white bedrock has been eroded by the rough waves and has become sloped, giving the impression of a wide rock pavement, just as the name “Senjyojiki” implies.

The blue waters of the Pacific Ocean and the large white soft bedrock made of sandstone that juts out from the tip of Setozaki toward the Pacific Ocean create a magnificent view.

The sunset from this spot is famous for its beauty, and the scene of the sun setting over the vast Pacific Ocean has been selected as one of the “100 best sunsets in Japan.

Together with Engetsu Island and San-dan-babe, it is designated as a national place of scenic beauty under the name of “Engetsu Island (Takashima), Senjidajiki, San-dan-babe.
