Jogashima: Miura’s haven for seafood.

This is the path everyone takes on Jogashima—just steps away the moment you get off the tour bus.
城ヶ島に来れば必ず通る道で、観光バスを降りてすぐの場所にある。

Jogashima is an island worth exploring over a full day, and spring or autumn makes the visit even better.

Just a little tease, nothing more.

This isn’t a sandy beach; the rocky shore feels refreshing in the sea breeze, and Japan’s coastline carries its own distinct scent.
ここは砂浜ではなく岩場で、潮風が心地よく、日本の海には独特の匂いが漂っている。

Miura welcomes riders and curious visitors.

The drive before reaching the destination is the appetizer of the journey, a reward that replaces any need for alcohol.
目的地に着く前のドライブ体験こそがご馳走の食前酒であり、アルコールを飲まない自分なりの対価だ。
