A stunning view at the Jogasaki Coastline

The start of the hiking trail at Jogasaki Coast

The coves and rugged cliffs make for most of the coastline

Jogasaki coast is an amazingly scenic section of the Izu peninsula’s eastern coastline and is a beautiful example of a sawtooth coastline. It was formed by lava flows from Mt.Omuro and comprises mostly of ragged cliffs and coves making for some gorgeous views of the Pacific along the 9 km hiking trail adjoining the rugged shore. Jogasaki coast can be reached by a 10 min bus ride from the Izu-Kogen station and thereafter one can walk up the hiking trail among the woods for about 15-20 min to reach the suspension bridge and the lighthouse. The colors of the Pacific were an amazing shade of glorious blue and the view was simply stunning !!!
