The area of Kaiyo Town in southern Tokushima is known for its dramatic coastline, part of the Muroto-Anan Kaigan Quasi-National Park. An interesting local fact is that the town's name, "Kaiyo," translates to "Ocean Sun," reflecting its beautiful seaside setting. The closest major landmark is the iconic Muroto Cape in neighboring Kochi Prefecture, a UNESCO Global Geopark known for its rugged coastal scenery and lighthouse, approximately an hour's drive away.
