visiting it on a sunny day but windy in winter. it was spectacular and powerful. i think if you don't go up the tower you should find a free parking site around here. easy to find. at the tower parking, i had to pay 500 yen for the fee. in addition it's easy to walk around Tojinbo seaside cliff area.

The cliffs and scenery are breathtaking! And the ocean waves smashing on the rocky surface below are just spectacular! But if you’re an Empath or a Psychic like me, you might find this place a little bit overwhelming and gloomy. I came here to visit the founder of a nonprofit organization for suicide prevention, so, I’m well aware of some of the darker history of this place. He’s a warm and friendly 80 years old man by the way, still actively working on his cause. Really respect him for his work. Anyway, this is still a great place to visit, if you love the smell of the ocean, seafood and sunset.

Simply a beautiful spot to spend the afternoon watching the tide come in. Just be sure to wear comfortable and steady walking shoes to ensure you don’t slip on the rocks. Dress your best and take lots of pictures.

A nice spot to wrap up a day, with sunset. Parking 🅿️ is quite confusing (I couldn’t manage to locate the free parking space) and most of the places offer parking spaces with flat rate at 500 yen. I arrived almost 6pm and missed the opening hours of most shops, so it’s better to head to Tojinbo earlier.

Pretty nice coastal scenery. It's probably a bit more famous than it really should be mostly due to the grim stories surrounding it, as the actual area of rocks is pretty small overall. There are actually just as many impressive areas all along the Sea of Japan side of the country. Nice selection of shops. Parking is available for 500 yen, but there is a free parking area about 15 mins walk away (look to the south of the area)
