Cape Kiritappu

Cape Kiritappu is located at the eastern end of the Kiritappu Peninsula. The cape juts out into the rough waters of the Pacific Ocean, and from the observatory you can enjoy the contrast between the flat, cliff-like plateau and the Pacific Ocean. If you walk up to the lighthouse at the tip of the cape, the view becomes even more expansive, and on a clear day, you can even see uninhabited islands floating in the bay. In recent years, the cape has become a popular habitat for wild sea otters.
