[2025 Hachinohe Attraction] Travel Guide for Ōsuka-kaigan coast (Updated Jul)

Aosuga Coast, located in Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture, is part of the Sanriku Fukko National Park and serves as a key attraction at the southern end of the Tanesashi Coast. This area features a rare combination of white sand and green pine trees along its coastline. The approximately 2.3-kilometer-long beach is straight and majestic, creating a striking contrast with the rocky grassland terrain to the north. The strong sea breeze and crashing waves showcase the unique natural power of the Pacific coast in northeastern Japan. While the turbulent currents make it unsuitable for swimming, the coast is perfect for walking, photography, listening to the sound of the waves, or simply relaxing. Visitors can also follow the coastal trail heading north, which connects to the Tanesashi Natural Grassland—a favorite spot for hikers. During spring and summer, seaside wildflowers bloom, complementing the stunning Pacific views and offering a truly soothing experience. 📍Address: Akabane, Same Town, Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture 🚶Access: About a 15-minute walk from JR Hachinohe Line's "Okuki Station" or a 20-minute walk from "Tanesashi Coast Station" 🕰️Hours: Open all day (natural scenery without fences) 💰Admission: Free

It was a bit disappointing that the weather was cloudy ☁️, but I think it would be a great driving course on a sunny day. The beach is shallow and vast, making it a spot that even beginner surfers can enjoy. #Aomori #Coast #Tanesa Coast #Osuka Coast #Shallow water #Surfer #Filming location #Spring 0 yen trip

#japantrip A coast with beautiful white sand. There is also a promenade that leads to Shirahama Beach, but the sandy beach here seems to have been set up as a promenade, so I found it quite difficult to walk. I walked from Shirahama Beach, but in the end I gave up on walking on the sand and instead walked along a kind of animal trail on the side of the road. Still, you can enjoy it quite a lot, as there are pampas grass fields and Hamahurugao blooming. Apparently it makes a noise when you walk on the beach, but I didn't notice it. The bus stop is near the Umineko Line Monument.
