Tiny Hiwasa on the sea

Sea Turtles and Beaches

The town of Hiwasa
Hiwasa lies an hour plus from Tokushima and is a quiet town, not a city, along the sea. It is where Japanese on Shikoku go when they want to go to the beach and relax for a day. It is known for its beautiful shrine, castle, beaches, and the sea turtles that lay their eggs on the beach.
