The Park Hotel Jodogahama

Jodogahama Park Hotel is an accommodation near the magnificent natural scenery of Iwate’s Sanriku coast. From the hotel, it’s about a 10-minute walk down to the beautiful Jodogahama Beach, known for its striking combination of white rock, pine trees, and deep-blue sea. Around Jodogahama, you can enjoy cruises showcasing dramatic sights within the Sanriku Geopark area, including the nationally designated natural monument "Candle Rock" (a pillar-like giant rock), the "Shiofuki Hole" that forcefully blows seawater upward, and the paired "Meoto Rocks." On board, feeding black-tailed gulls (umineko) is also a popular experience. In addition, about 15 minutes by car from the hotel, you can take a small boat tour (sappa-sen) to see Hachinohe Cave, sometimes called the "Blue Cave" of the Rikuchu Coast, and also view famous spots inside Jodogahama Bay up close. The hotel stands on a hill within a national park, offering a Japanese aesthetic and the sense of seasonal blessings. Enjoy Japanese set meals featuring abundant seafood—Sanriku is truly a treasure house of gastronomy as ingredients come into season. A spacious, open lobby and sweeping views of Miyako Bay welcome you, making it a great base for both relaxation and activities.
