Breathtaking Views at Cape Kamui

Summer in Hokkaido (July 2025) Take a walk where the sky meets the sea at Cape Kamui. There’s a 700-meter-long trail called Charenka's Path that winds along the cliffs, leading to a scenic viewpoint at the cape’s tip. (The round trip takes about 1 hour.) At the tip of the cape, you’ll find a rock formation resembling a woman, inspired by an Ainu legend. The weather is great, sunny, but very windy—be prepared! 😂 Don’t forget to bring sunscreen and UV-protective clothing. At the entrance, there’s free parking, restrooms, and even a shop selling souvenirs and snacks. 💗 📍Address: Cape Kamui, Shakotan, Hokkaido

Cape Jadan — Experience the beautiful secrets off the coast of Hokkaido, Japan! The best thing here is the sea views and natural scenery, and there are fewer tourists, not commercialized, photography will not be blocked, really relax away from the hustle and bustle. The most famous attraction in Cape Jakdan is Cape Shenwei, and although transportation is not very convenient, you can definitely arrange a day/half-day tour if you drive or check the bus times in advance. Recommended Route: It is recommended to start from Jakdan-cho and drive or take a bus to the Kamui Cape parking lot. Then walk along Cape Road to the observation deck, which takes about 20-30 minutes (more relaxing, great scenery on the way). Especially suitable for those who like to take pictures or want to quietly look at the scenery without crowding with others.

Cape Kamui

A quick road trip from Sapporo landed me in the heart of Hokkaido’s photogenic gems: Otaru Canal, Shakotan’s Cape Kamui, and the magical Ningle Terrace in Furano 😎🌊🏞️. These are the must-see spots if you’re chasing scenery and chilled-out vibes in Northern Japan! Top Spots to Visit: 1. Otaru Canal (047-0007 Minatomachi, Otaru, Hokkaido, open year-round): Stroll the charming waterfront, snap those iconic retro lamplight shots, and dip into the cozy cafés lining the canal for a perfect start to your day. 2. Cape Kamui (Kozakicho, Shakotan, 046-0321): This cape is *wow* — think epic ocean views and dramatic cliffs! Opening hours shift with the season, so check times before you go (as early as 8:00 or as late as 10:00 opening, closing around 15:00–18:30). 3. Ningle Terrace (Nakagoryo, Furano, 076-8511): It’s a fairy-tale wooden village tucked in a forest, filled with local craft shops. Opening hours vary, but usually late morning until evening (best after dark for the lit-up paths!). Travel Hack: 🚗 Book a day trip from Sapporo instead of trying to DIY it with public transport. Attractions are spread out — you’ll save money, have less hassle, and can actually fit everything into one ambitious day! Getting Around: Arrange your day-trip tour online via trip.com, or hire a private transfer if you want max flexibility. Food: Try Otaru’s fresh sushi near the canal, and warm up with Furano cheese pizza or soft-serve nearby Ningle Terrace. Destination Tips: No special visa needed for most tourists. Bring enough cash as small shops may not accept cards. Hokkaido’s weather can be unpredictable, so pack layers. #HokkaidoTrip #JapanHiddenGems #TravelSmart #ScenicJapan #tripdotcom

Sapporo Suburbs: A Day Trip to Shakotan

Panoramic Flower Gardens Shikisai-no-oka

A Leisurely Hokkaido Trip - My first summer trip to Hokkaido, of course, included a sea of ​​flowers. Although I'd missed lavender season at the end of August, I still saw a vast expanse of sunflowers and other vibrant flowers. In the breezy weather, I spent the day relaxing. The next day, we visited the Blue Pond, whose turquoise waters were so tranquil. We then took the children on a whitewater trip. It was their first time whitewater rafting. Floating along the river, the water was clear and cool, and amidst the vast forests along the way, we felt a sense of tranquility and connection with nature. There were a few rapids along the way, and the thrill of rushing down was a thrill for the children. The next day, we made a special trip to Shakotan, as that was the main purpose of my trip, and I absolutely had to try Shakotan sea urchin. Its sweet, smooth texture was unforgettable. Afterwards, we visited Cape Kamui. Although we couldn't reach Cape Kamui due to recent bear sightings, the view from the observation deck, with its vast expanse of ocean, gave us a sense of the Cape's majestic tranquility. Finally we returned to Sapporo, ate, shopped and went shopping, and the few days of vacation passed!
