500 yen per person, stunning gardens with great walks, restaurant was very good, had a great 3/4 hours here, easily accessible by no 30 bus from hamamatsu station, drops you right outside. Just a little further on is Lake Hamana, well worth another 3 stops to have a look round.

Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 220 reviews
The Nakatajima sand dunes, which extends 4km east to west and 600m north to south, is one of the three major sand dunes in Japan. The “Fumon (Sand dune crests)” was created by the strong winds blowing from the Enshu Nada and the endless soft curves are truly art. The Pacific Ocean spreads over the sand dunes and the setting sun on the horizon is very stunning. The beach is also famous for loggerhead turtles landing every spring and summer to lay eggs.
