There are a lot of fisherman's boat, and they go to the ocean by those boats to get to Iseebi ( lobster) in this season.

During winter and early spring we sometimes have strong north wind, and it blows the sand away.
So they have to prepare the beach removing the sand before summer.
On last Sunday, as it was beautiful day I went to Tsumekizaki cape in Shimoda for snorkeling with my son.
