This beach is located in Masuichi-cho, Muroran City, which is in the southwest part of Etomo Peninsula in Hokkaido. As one of Eight Scenic Spots in Muroran, the beach is known for its beautiful landscape enjoyed from the observation tower. The origin of the name of this beach is “masui chise,” which means a “house of black-tail gulls.” You can command a view of Mt. Komagatake across Uchiura Bay (Funka Bay) and diversified coast line as well as Kamome Rock (seagull rock) and Zo Rock (elephant rock) from the observation tower. It is also a place to observe falcons and other wild birds. Migration of Falconiformes can be also seen in autumn. Strange-shaped rocks rise around the coast and the ruins of ancient native people were discovered near the beach. Mt. Komagatake across the bay on a fine day is an exquisite beauty. Masuichi Beach is blessed with plentiful natural beauty.
