It is the second oldest Western-style lighthouse in Japan, standing at the southernmost point of the Boso Peninsula, and is listed on the National Registered Tangible Cultural Property. It was built by the French engineer Verny in 1869, and was restored in 1925, after the Great Kantō earthquake. It is 29m high and the light reaches about 31km away. The observation deck, which ascends a spiral staircase, also overlooks the Izu Islands.

A museum that collects materials that serve as the pride of the ethnic marine population in terms of "beauty." the building is built to mimic the fishery of a fisherman in Kujukuri. From about 100 exhibits used from the Edo period to the Taisho period, such as the whaling picture scroll, the Okuroya Kotayu Drifting, the many festivals worn by fishermen to celebrate the great fishing, the hand-painted sample book, and the bow decoration attached to the bow, you can see the state of fishing at that time. Take 30 minutes. In addition, there is a promenade that goes around Noshimazaki on a 15-minute walk outside.

A materials room about the lighthouse attached to the Nojima Lighthouse. In the center of the exhibition room, a total length of 2.54m and a diameter of 1.45m, is displayed the Fresnel-type lens of the oakahat [Eboshi] Island Lighthouse used in the Genkai Buna, Fukuoka. This is said to be the same size as the first lens of the Nojima Lighthouse. In the mini-library and mini-theater, you can learn about the history of lighthouses throughout Japan. It takes 10 minutes.

The park maintained the coastal area around the Nojimazaki Lighthouse. At the southern tip of the reef, there is a bench where you can see the morning sun and the sunset, and it boasts the best view in Minamiboso. The walking path, which is about 20 minutes around, is dotted with art works such as a monument on the southernmost part of the Boso Peninsula made of black granite, and you can enjoy art viewing.

The southernmost headland of the Boso Peninsula. The cape, which protrudes heavily into the Pacific Ocean from Shirahama, also known as a hot spring resort, is a scenic scenic spot surrounded by rocky reefs. The Shirahama Museum of Art is located near the cape entrance, and the Noshimazaki Undersea Perspective boat, which can admire the seabed around the cape, also sets sail. On the hill in the center of the cape stands the Shimazaki Nojima Lighthouse, which is also a national tangible registered cultural property, and the entire area is maintained as Shirahama-no-Shimazaki Park.

The coast became the motif of one of the representative songs of Wakayama Makisui, who was said to be a poet of travel and sake, "The Swan [Shiratori] is a pity and the Aomi in the sky." there are also scenic spots such as folding rocks, and cycling can be enjoyed on the road leading along the coast from here. While cycling, various expressions can be seen, such as gentle waves hitting sandy beaches and rough waves hitting rocky areas, and a crowd of Hamayu, whose white and neat flowers bloom in early summer.

Day-bathable inn with a reputation for a cypress bath using Dead Sea salt. The Dead Sea is a saltwater lake in Israel, rich in minerals. It improves the metabolism of skin and is effective for atopy and beauty. There is a guest room with an open-air bath, and a private open-air bath. I'm happy to be able to use a variety of meals from two meals per night to breaks with meals.

Because it is a high-level cultivation, the handle on the left and right side of the furrow can be turned, and the height can be adjusted according to the person who picks it. It is possible to compare the eating of six kinds of strawberries (due to the growing situation of strawberries, all kinds of strawberries may not be eaten, and the inquiry is required).

"The closest town to spring." A small roadside station in Shirahama. Let's go check out information about Shirahama sightseeing, including the Glasses Bridge, Shirahama Coast, and Nojima Lighthouse, at a flower information hall with a bright lobby that incorporates sunshine.

Located along National Route 410, you can enjoy picking flowers all year round using the warm climate. Poppy is generally at its peak around March to May, but in Boso, it begins to bloom around November due to the mild climate. At its peak, flowers such as orange, yellow and white bloom all over the area. In addition, you can experience farming in late April to mid-May by picking broad beans and in late August to early October by picking peanuts, which is well received by families.
