Yabitsu Area Overview

 

The Yabitsu area is a small seaside port town known as the mysterious land of Arida, where the blue sky, white houses, and beautiful sea create a landscape reminiscent of Italy's Amalfi Coast. This area, surrounded by the sea and mountains, is like a hidden retreat, offering stunning cafes and enjoyable city walks. With a history dating back to the early Edo period, the Yabitsu area has preserved the traditions of the Kishu Tokugawa family for over 400 years, making it worth visiting sites such as "Yabitsu Ebisu Shrine" and "Nanryu Shrine", which enshrines the first feudal lord.
In recent years, the opening of the "Kurashicharu Yabitsu" relocation experience facility has brought new vitality, making it a hub for activities such as stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and showcasing wall art at the port.
