Minamitane Town, located in the southern part of Tanegashima, is a very unique coastal resort town where the romance of Japan's cutting-edge scientific technology and the untouched primitive beautiful marine ecosystem are miraculously fused. The biggest highlight is the "Tanegashima Space Center," called the most beautiful rocket launch site in the world, which is very popular among international tourists as a futuristic spot where you can experience the historical romance of the vast universe. On the other hand, marine activities such as the magnificent sea erosion cave "Chikura no Iwaya" created by the rough waves of the Pacific Ocean and snorkeling in the emerald green reef (coral reef) with excellent transparency are also full. It is a place where the living vitality of the earth and human intellectual curiosity intersect comfortably.
