Shamijima

Connected to the Shikoku mainland through land reclamation in the 1960s, Shamijima serves as a scenic southern anchor for the monumental Seto Ohashi Bridge network. Visitors can stroll along tranquil sandy shores and leafy paths while enjoying up-close, panoramic views of the massive engineering marvel stretching across the sea. The former island also boasts deep historical roots with ancient burial mounds and occasionally hosts creative outdoor exhibits during the Setouchi Triennale. It is an ideal seaside stop for travelers seeking peaceful waters, maritime heritage, and stunning sunset viewpoints.
