“Natural geological beauty of Shirahama”

Feb 2020

The fantastic place is very easy to access by bus, just a three-minute walk from the bus stop. The geological scenery is really a natural beauty that you can make good photos from any angle. Most time it is full of tourists, if you stay overnight in Shirahama, it is better to visit here in the early morning before others come over here.

“Amazing unique scenery!”

Nov 2019

The rock formations are absolutely stunning, and you can walk out all over them towards the sea. Unfortunately there's quite a lot of graffiti carved into them, but it's easy enough to look past to enjoy the really amazing scenery. My friend and I spent quite a while just clambering all over and taking photos.

Such a beautiful sunset

May 2019 • Solo

I visited Senjojiki by accident - I was taking a long walk up the coastal roads to find a place for a sunset photo or two.
I had seen some information about sandstone cliffs in the area, but had no idea where they were and what to expect.

As the sun began to make its final descent into the sea, I headed down the nearest road leading to the ocean. It happened to be the parking area for Senjojiki.

I was pleased to find that you can walk out onto the sandstone formations that stick out into the water and took a lovely walk out for my sunset photos. The beauty of these formations allowed for several other fine shots - including a beautiful selfie that looks almost other worldly.

sculptures of God, coastal geo park

Jun 2018 • Couples

Drive and park right in front of the vast coastal sedimentary rock platform. Take a bus just a 7 mins walk down the road to the ocean front.

Natural wonder that's a sight to see

Jun 2017 • Family

Kids love this place a lot. Didn't expect them to because they didn't like such places before. But Senjojiki was very accessible and easy to climb structures help the kids warm up to the activity very quickly. A nice treat of ice cream at the end can be found at the cafe there.

Good for photo taking

Mar 2017 • Couples

Mainly for photo taking, especially for sunrise/ sunset and to see the rocks. It can be very windy and cool there.

Amazing rocks like thousand mats

Dec 2016 • Couples

Good time to see is before sunset. If you are lucky with the clear day, the rocks, ocean and sunset view are stun. Orange color from the sunset shine to the rocks create amazing view. If there is no cloud you will see the sun drops into the north pacific ocean.

Thousand layers

Jul 2016 • Family

Layers of sedimentary limestone laid over millions of years exposed for you to walk on.

Like a prehistoric landscape by the sea, you half expect to find fossils as you walk. A beautiful natural shore formation.

Great view point!

May 2016

I just planned to stop by for not longer than 10. minutes. I arrived there at around 5 p.m. It's so much beautiful than people's.

It's stunning view and very good weather made me spent more than hour. Just sitting and watching the sunset. Nothing else to do, all shops were closed.

My memory is there!
