Otachimisaki Beach: A Spacious Family-Friendly Seaside Resort with Go-Karts in Kumamoto
2017.07.19

A Sarukuma writer visits Otachimisaki Beach in Kumamoto Prefecture and shares a first-hand report. We’ve also rounded up family-friendly tips, access details, and opening hours.
The first thing you’ll notice? It’s huge!

Today we’re introducing Otachimisaki Beach, one of Kumamoto’s most expansive seaside spots.
Because it’s such a large beach, the facilities are really well equipped — perfect for visitors looking for a comfortable day by the sea.


One thing to keep in mind: you’ll need to walk through a tunnel from the parking area to reach the beach, so the parking lot is a bit of a hike from the shore.

With plenty of shaded areas and rest spots scattered around, this is a fantastic choice for families looking to spend a relaxed day at the beach in Kumamoto.
