It had been many years since my last visit to New Chitose Airport.
After clearing immigration this time, I saw a FamilyMart convenience store right away on the right, so I immediately went over to buy some limited-edition items. The layout was also very convenient. If you go straight, you reach the domestic terminal, where you can catch flights to destinations all over Japan. On B1, you can take the JR train to central Sapporo, and there are also shuttle buses available. The planning and overall setup have really gotten better and better.

Kouri Beach
Located on Kouri Island, just across the Kouri Ohashi Bridge from Yagaji Island in Nago City, this beach features pristine white sand stretching on either side of the bridge, offering a scenic view of Kouri Ohashi Bridge itself.
The beach below Kouri Ohashi Bridge is the safest choice for playing in the water.
The official swimming season here runs from April to October every year. There are lifeguards on duty, safety nets, and the public facilities nearby are the most complete as well. -

Tokei Beach
Located on the northern part of Kouri Island, a small island about 8 km in circumference, Tokei Beach lies beyond Tinu Beach, known for its heart-shaped "Heart Rock." This beautiful beach, split into eastern and western sections by a small peninsula, still features coral remnants.
It’s really beautiful, and it makes you want to run straight into the water and splash around in the waves. But since it’s a more natural, undeveloped beach, it’s worth noting that there are no public restrooms or shower facilities nearby.

Tinu Beach
Located on the northern side of Kouri Island, a small island surrounded by beautiful emerald-green waters and spanning about 8 km in circumference, Tinu Beach is a popular spot. Known as the "Island of Love" for centuries, Kouri Island draws special attention to Tinu Beach, home to the heart-shaped rock formation, or "Heart Rock," a famous love-themed power spot.
It looks beautiful from a distance, like two hearts standing in the sea.
Just a quick heads-up: the path to Heart Rock includes a small steep slope and some uneven rocky ground, so be sure to wear comfortable, non-slip sneakers or flat shoes, take it slow, and stay safe. -
