Among the many beaches visitors can find in the Kansai area of Japan, many of them are located in Wakayama, such as the great Kataonami Beach. Along with the clear waters of the beach and its clean environment, many people come and visit Kataonami due to its somewhat close proximity to the city of Osaka, around an hour and thirty minutes away. This make it a good day trip from Osaka, allowing visitors to escape from the bustling city for the day. Kataonami Beach is also perfect for taking an evening stroll and taking in the stunning views of the sunset.
