Cape Ashizuri
The southernmost tip of Shikoku, where the azure waters of the Pacific Ocean stretch out before you from the jutting land. A view of more than 270 degrees can be seen from the observatory, so you can really feel just how round the earth is. Both "Cape Ashizuri" and the "view from Cape Ashizuri" have received two stars from the Michelin Green Guide. Furthermore, there are onsen inn facilities at Cape Ashizuri, so you can enjoy the brilliant starry sky at night while relaxing in the open air bath.
