“Cross the 1.7km sea bridge for a quick beach break”
Tsunoshima is a 4.1 square kilometre, hourglass-shaped island in the East Sea. Take a scenic coastal drive across Tsunoshima Bridge, a 1,780-meter-long, free phone bridge connecting the westernmost tip of Yamaguchi to the picturesque Tsunoshima. The island is frequently used as a filming location for TV dramas and commercials because of its beautiful scenery and cobalt blue sea.
Visit the first Western-style lighthouse constructed in Japan, Tsunoshima Lighthouse. Designed by British architect Richard Henry Brunton and opened in 1876, the lighthouse is a designated National Important Cultural Property due to its historical and cultural value. It is one of only 16 lighthouses in Japan that can be climbed. Walk up the 105-step spiral staircase and take in panoramic views of the island and sea from the observation deck.
There are restaurants scattered around the island. Locally caught grilled squid is just one of the local specialities offering an authentic taste of Yamaguchi coastal life. Its crunchy texture and mouth-watering sweetness make it an unforgettable experience.
Tsunoshima offers an island escape where you can free your mind with natural scenery and enjoy tasty local food.
