ERIMO
Cape Erimo, also knows as “the land of the wind”. There are more than 260 days a year when the wind blows at 10m/s (22mph) or faster.
In such an environment, over 600 harbor seals live comfortably on the reefs where waves crash from left and right.
Another popular attraction is the heart-shaped lake Toyoniko, which has recently been featured in a cookie commercial.

- Cape Erimo is the place where the 180km long Hidaka Mountain range, the backbone of Hokkaido, sinks into the sea. It is a breathtaking sight of waves crashing into both sides of the mountains as they transform into a 2km long reef. It is also a famous place where the sun both rises from and sets into the sea. Submerge yourself in the environment where sea, wind, waves, mountains, and the sun converge in Cape Erimo.
