The beach has toilet blocks, shaded benches, and arbors. There are no food or drink vendors, so bring your own supplies. Marine shoes are recommended for coral and rock protection.
Yes. The beach features underwater markers leading to four coral species unique to the Ogasawara Islands. The protected bay has calm waters with coral reefs close to shore. Green sea turtles nest here, and night tours occasionally allow viewing of nesting mothers or hatchling releases.
June to October offers the best conditions, with air temperatures consistently above 25 degrees Celsius. The beach is accessible year-round due to the subtropical climate.
Stay within the protected bay area to avoid strong offshore currents. Whitetip reef sharks and stingrays inhabit the reef but are not aggressive—do not touch them. Water depth varies with tides, requiring caution for swimmers, especially children.
Traveler reviews
This beach is so nice. It has clear aquamarine color of the sea and is also good for surfing. There is a trail leading to Kominato Beach, however its a bit rough and steep. We love having picnics here and a barbeque party with my colleagues. The place is so romantic.
I visited on March 20, 2026.
There were fewer people than I expected, and it felt almost like a private retreat.
I was amazed by the incredibly white sand and the crystal-clear sea. I'm not usually the type to go into the sea, but I couldn't resist putting on the sandals I'd brought and wading in.
Compared to the neighboring Kominato Beach, there are more stones.
And it's quite small.
If you want to quietly enjoy the overwhelming nature of the Ogasawara Islands all by yourself, this is a highly recommended place.
It's a place I'd definitely want to visit again if I ever come back to Ogasawara.
[Note]
The black spots on the rocks are all sea urchins.
Therefore, you should never walk on the rocks barefoot. Also, since slipping is guaranteed to cause serious injury, wear flip-flops (apparently known for being non-slip) called "gyosan."
It's located at the end of a narrow mountain road (though properly paved) that makes you wonder if you're going the right way, after climbing and descending a steep slope from the direction of Ogiura.
There's also a parking space for several cars at the end of the road.
When I visited, I had the place all to myself, which made for a truly luxurious experience.
I rented a bicycle and went to Kobebe. It's a very quiet and peaceful beach. It was a peaceful time. It might be my favorite beach in the Ogasawara Islands.
