Local Pick
Overview
Striped lighthouse on Oga's northern cape offering sunsets ranked among Japan's 100 finest.
Standing at the northernmost tip of the Oga Peninsula, this black-and-white striped lighthouse offers one of Japan's 100 most beautiful sunset views. The Sea of Japan stretches to the horizon in every direction as the sun sinks into the water, painting sky and ocean in matching shades of orange. Grassy headlands with coastal hiking trails surround the base, and a small museum details the region's maritime history.
Local tips
Check the weather forecast and come on a clear day. Overcast skies reduce the view dramatically.
