💎 The SAND BEIGE website is now complete!! Search for "Kagawa Prefecture Sand Beige" What kind of adventures are you having? Adventure is one step ahead of everyday life. I stop the car, go through the tunnel, and my adventure begins. Adventure tourism is gaining attention as a natural and cultural experience tourism due to the global rise in nature and health orientation and sustainable awareness. The Oikushi Peninsula has the sculptural beauty of volcanic eruptions and powdery sandy beaches. 🧘🏼 The moment you step into the sand beige, you may choose an adventure of doing nothing. However, you will be healed by the emerald blue sea in front of you. ⌛️ It seems that walking on the sandy beach with bare feet will remove the electromagnetic waves of the body that are exposed to mobile phones, etc. It seems that modern children can also feel better when they play. ⛴️ Enter the sauna of the ship and experience the sea like the Finnish people! 🐠 3 seconds from the villa! Enjoy swimming, boating, supping, and fishing. (We are currently preparing to install a paddle board...) 🦀 The adventure of finding sea treasures in a secret cove will revive the spirit of exploration in both children and adults. Enjoy the adventure to your heart's content!!
