Omijima, referred to as the "Alps of the Sea," is a dynamic scenic spot where cliffs, strange rocks, and sea caves carved by the rough waves of the Sea of Japan over many years continue. It is the highlight of the Kita-Nagato Coast Quasi-National Park, and if you take a sightseeing boat, you can fully enjoy the formative beauty created by nature's fury and mystery up close. Especially beautiful are sea caves like the "Blue Grotto" and the panorama of standing strange rocks. The sea with outstanding transparency is also known as a sanctuary for diving, and you can enjoy underwater cave exploration. There is also a well-maintained walking path on land, making it a representative nature spot of northern Yamaguchi Prefecture where you can enjoy walking with spectacular views while being blown by the sea breeze.
