Sandanbeki is a 2-km long craggy rock cliff that towers 50 meters above the sea. In the past, fishermen would call this place “midan”, a lookout point for passing ships and schools of fish, but the point has gradually become known as “Sandanbeki” over time. The rockface is pummeled by the Kuroshio Current, creating for a view that’s bound to impress you.

This spot was selected in April 2016 as a lover’s paradise, giving way to the addition of a heart-shaped monument and pink-colored postbox near the neighboring lookout point. This is one spot couples will definitely want to visit.

The inner reaches of the Sandanbeki Rock Cliff include a cave which visitors are welcome to explore.
Legend has it that Kumano Navy, who helped the Minamoto Clan in the “Genpei War” hid their ship here, leaving the shrouded aura of the historic fight over this area.

There is a Sandanbeki Foot Bath available to enjoy in front of the Sandanbeki Rock Cliff Cave’s building.

    三段壁的鋸齒狀崎嶇峭壁與白良濱形成了對比。洶湧的太平洋海浪拍打懸崖壁面,濺起陣陣浪花。令人讚嘆⋯海景美不勝收啊👍

    三段𤩹泂窟遊覽可以買門票,在搭電梯進入底下 36 米處的洞窟中,可以探索一下這個洞窟裡被大自然侵蝕所留下的各種痕跡。很值得-探究竟👍
