Angel Road エンジェルロード
500 metres of sand re-emerge twice a day, two hours before and after low tide.
The stretch was originally a clam-gathering bank for the local fishermen of Tonoshō: it became a romantic destination by word of mouth, with the story that two people who cross it hand in hand will stay together. It is promoted by the Shōdoshima tourist board as one of the sites registered in the national ‘恋人の聖地’ (lovers’ sanctuaries) network, which is run by a private foundation and is not a state designation. In June 2017 a dispute between landowners and the local authority led to no-entry signs on Nakayoshima, removed once an agreement was reached in August of the same year.
