One of the nicer public beaches with facilities in this part of the Seto Inland Sea area. As well as long, pretty clean beach, there are lovely views, a nice walk, observatory, a restaurant open for lunch and a public onsen hot spring that looks out over the sea.
Kenmin-no-hama Beach Park is the start and finish point for the Tobishima (full) Marathon in February and the Seto Island Trail Race in March.
