Minamiboso, Administrative division in southern Boso Peninsula, Japan

Minamiboso stretches along the southern coast of Chiba Prefecture, covering 230 square kilometers of land with beaches and mountain terrains.

The region belonged to Awa Province during feudal times, where the Satomi clan maintained control throughout the Sengoku period of Japan.

Local festivals mark the seasonal changes, with the Chikura BON Festa in August and the Knife Ceremony at Takabe Shrine drawing participants.

The city connects to major urban centers through the Uchibō railway line, national highways, and ferry services across Tokyo Bay.

The Kuroshio Current influences the maritime climate, creating conditions for loquat fruit cultivation and year-round fishing activities.
