Overview

The coastline includes both sandy and rocky beaches, but is for the most part an elevated coastal terrace noted for its grassy meadows and scenic views.

The area was included within the borders of the Tanesashi Kaigan Hashikamidake Prefectural Natural Park established in 1953. In 2013 the park was incorporated into Sanriku Fukkō National Park.

Samekado Lighthouse, listed as one of the “50 Lighthouses of Japan” by the Japan Lighthouse Association is located on the Tanesashi Coast.
