Unosu Cliff

鵜之巣断崖(田野畑村)

Unosu Cliff, or “Cormorants’ Nest Cliff,” is a 4-km stretch of sheer precipices that measure 200 meters in height. There is an observation deck, from which you can see 5 impressive rock walls jutting out into the sea in a row, a scenery that resembles a folding screen. As the name suggests, you can see various species of cormorants which have nested on the mid-slope of the cliff, as well as eagles and ospreys. There is an esplanade along the coastline that leads to Shimanokoshi.
