Situated at the eastern edge of the Miura Peninsula, Cape Kannon blends rich maritime history with breathtaking coastal nature. Overlooking the rocky shoreline stands the historic Kannonzaki Lighthouse, originally constructed in 1869 as Japan's very first Western-style lighthouse. Visitors can wander scenic trails surrounded by vibrant seasonal flora, including brilliant displays of blue, purple, and pink hydrangeas in early summer. It is a refreshing seaside retreat ideal for coastal walks, panoramic ocean views, and relaxed outdoor photography.
