Izumo’s shrine and Hinomisaki coast
Izumo’s shrine and Hinomisaki coast

Start near Izumo Taisha, pause at Inasa Beach and follow the coast to Hinomisaki. Combine the shrine visit with a walk around the lighthouse and rocky headland. This is a compact coastal outing with plenty to see after parking, so leave more time than the drive alone suggests. Cover photo: Hinomisaki lighthouse.jpg — Isebito.
