Review & FAQ:

Kotohiki Beach provides a Caribbean-like beach right in Japan. Many people may think of the beautiful beaches of Biwa Lake when they think about the local beaches within the Kansai region of the country. However, these can get crowded. Kotohiki Beach is a great alternative in the Kyoto prefecture, found along the Sea of Japan coast. The beach boasts golden white sands that goes on for miles and amazing views of cliffs. Visitors may get a look at the sun setting across the water behind a mountain. By train, the beach can be reached on the JR line from Kyoto Station.
