Chichibugahama Beach

The experience

A shallow Seto Inland Sea beach where evening tide pools go glass-flat during the 'Seto no yunagi' wind lull, mirroring the sunset like Bolivia's salt flats. It sat unnoticed until a 2017 photo went viral and earned it a spot among Japan's 100 best sunsets.

Famous on Japanese Instagram but still a detour-only spot on Shikoku's quiet northwest coast, far from any rail hub
