Pier / Boardwalk Tourist Spot

• ©

Take a walk out above the water on Nishi Pier for an impressive view of the shoreline and sea. The simple strip of concrete leading out from a remote beach blends in with the landscape, allowing the scenery to speak for itself. Walking out a few yards into the sea offers sights of different aquatic life at the edge of the pier, including sea cucumbers, shrimp, fish, crabs, and eels. With no facilities or businesses nearby, the pier remains a quiet place of relaxation and reflection in nature. Put Nishi Pier into our Taketomi-cho trip itinerary builder and find out what's close by, where to stay, and where to head next.

  行くなら朝、日が昇って青空がはっきりしたくらいの時間帯。 今回は大潮だったので、桟橋の先の方が海の中に続くみ道のようで幻想的でした。  more »

  If you go, it is time when the sun rises and the blue sky is clear in the morning. Because it was a high tide this time, the end of the pier seemed to be a road which continued in the sea and was fantastic.

  レンタサイクルで行ってみました。 景色が抜群で最高のロケーションでもあり、撮影スポットでもあります。 うちらが訪れた時は、新郎新婦の撮影をしていました。  more »

  I went by rental bicycle. It's a great location with excellent views and a shooting spot. When we visited, we were taking pictures of the bride and groom.

  A place which is so secluded yet so famous. It was fun travelling there and seeing the clean sea waters for a change.

  I came here to see Sunset. The silhouette of people by sunlight was so clear and beautiful. Noted on wonder-tips.
