Hi, I’m Tabi!

Isumi offers Pacific-facing headlands and food from its farming and fishing communities. Taitosaki Lighthouse and Hachiman Cape in Ohara are separate destinations. Check wind and local access, then begin with one.

This guide covers places within Isumi, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK
