Kasumi Coast, Protected coastal area in Kami, Japan
The Kasumi Coast features peculiar rock formations, including the Yoroi-no-sode wall measuring 65 meters in height and 200 meters in width.
The Japanese government designated this coastline as a Place of Scenic Beauty in 1938, recognizing its geological value and natural formations.
The coast houses the Kasumi Shrine, where performers present the traditional Kasumi Sanbaso dance during autumn festivals with three distinct characters.
Visitors can reach the coast by taking a local train to JR Kasumi Station, with the option to explore the area through guided boat tours.
The rock walls contain visible columnar joints and platy joints that form patterns resembling the sleeve of traditional Japanese armor.
