About this place

Sandanbeki is a scenic natural spot (cliff) in Sandan, Shirahama, Nishimuro District, Wakayama Prefecture. It is designated a National Place of Scenic Beauty under the name 'Engetsujima (Takashima), Senjojiki and Sandanbeki.' On the west coast of the southern Kii Peninsula, within Yoshino-Kumano National Park, it is a sea cliff of uplifted sandstone strata, 2 km long and 50 m - 60 m high, rising straight from the sea 1.8 km south of 'Saki no Yu' in Nanki-Shirahama Onsen, and is known as a scenic spot of sheer precipices. An observation deck has been built on the cliff, from which you can see the grand seascape of Nanki.
