70 The Setting Sun at Chichibugahama Beach, the Magic Hour Before Sunset
Behold breathtaking views of the sun setting over the Seto Inland Sea at Hiuchinada, located at the base of the Shonai Peninsula. The vast tidal flats that emerge as the tide ebbs create a magnificent contrast between the sand, sea, and setting sun. When low tide and dusk coincide, the large tide pools appearing all over the endless shallows resemble the Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia, making this a popular spot for stunning snapshots. This tranquil, quiet place lets you watch the setting sun in peace.
