Onjuku, Coastal town in Isumi District of Chiba Prefecture, Japan

Located on the eastern coast of the Boso Peninsula, Onjuku extends along the Pacific Ocean with sandy beaches and residential areas inland.

The town developed from a fishing settlement during the Meiji period when improved transportation networks connected it to major urban centers.

Throughout the year, Onjuku maintains its maritime traditions through festivals featuring local music, traditional dances, and seafood celebrations.

The town connects to Tokyo and Chiba through regular train services at Onjuku Station, with multiple accommodations near the beach area.

Local fishermen supply fresh catches daily to numerous restaurants, establishing Onjuku as a destination for authentic Pacific coastal cuisine.
