Cape Irago, Coastal cape in Tahara, Japan.

Cape Irago is the western tip of Atsumi Peninsula in Tahara, Aichi Prefecture, where Ise Bay and Mikawa Bay meet the Pacific. A broad, rounded hill covered in dense green vegetation rises from a sandy shoreline, with a small cluster of low, pale-walled buildings near its base. A narrow strip of tan sand runs along the foot of the hill, and a few small structures are scattered on the lower slopes.

The cape became an important landmark for maritime navigation in the region over time. A white lighthouse was built in 1929 to guide ships safely through the coastal waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Cape Irago is the setting of the poem "Coconut" by Shimazaki Tōjun, inspired by a coconut Yanagita Kunio picked at the cape in 1898. A coconut monument and the Yasunohi Museum stand near the beach, and each year about 100 coconuts bought in the Philippines are released offshore and wash ashore.

To reach the cape, take a train to Toyohashi Station and then a bus to Irago Misaki stop, followed by a twelve-minute walk. The rock formations and beaches are accessible from several spots, each offering a different view of the coastline.

The cape lies on the migration route of the grey-faced buzzard, called sashiba in Japanese, and other raptors. In season, birdwatchers gather here to watch the birds cross the peninsula on their southward journey. The cape's surroundings also host sea birds such as cormorants, and sea turtles nest on its beaches.
