Shirahama Chuo Beach is one of the most popular and famous attractions of Izu and is a long beach measuring approximately eight hundred meters in length. While many people come to the beach for the sun and sand, the beach is also known for its rather good conditions for surfing. Shirahama Beach is also one of the most popular beaches for swimming in Shimoda. The beach and the main road run parallel to each other, with Shirahama located around five kilometers from Izukyu-Shimoda Station to the east. Standing along Shirahama Beach is a beautiful Shinto shrine, Shirahama Jinja.
