Izu Shirahama Chuo Beach

Located just north of Shirahama Ohama Beach and Shirahama Shrine, Shirahama Chuo Beach has been selected as one of the “88 Best Swimming Beaches in Japan”　and ” Japan’s Top 100 Seaside Bathing Beaches.”

Stretching about 700 meters, this beach is known for its pure white sand　and clear blue waters. With both sandy shore　and rocky areas, visitors can enjoy not only swimming but also exploring tidal pools. You may spot sea creatures such as anemones, hermit crabs,　and　small shells.

A naturally formed rock called Kamifune　and the breakwater create a calm swimming area, making it especially recommended for families with children. Along the coastline, you can also stroll the Kamifune Promenade, where you can relax　and enjoy scenic ocean views.

Izu Shirahama Ohama Beach

As the largest beach on the Izu Peninsula, Shirahama Ohama Beach boasts a spacious sandy stretch about 800 meters long. It is the main beach of Shirahama, attracting both young people　and families who come every year to enjoy the dazzling white sand　and sky-blue sea.

The official beach season begins in mid-July, but when the weather is good, swimming is possible from Golden Week through mid-September. Even after the Obon holidays, jellyfish are rarely seen.

Although there are no beach huts directly on the sand, rental shops and eateries can be found along the nearby main road, making it easy to enjoy a full day at the beach.

Pension Shirahama BigfisherClub

From July to September, our staff are on-site, while during the rest of the year we operate with self check-in and are mainly run by part-time staff. As such, our service, hospitality, and facilities may not match the standards of hotels & traditional inns. If you place high importance on service quality during your stay, we recommend choosing a hotel & ryokan instead.

Our pension is designed for budget-conscious travelers who prefer to spend less on accommodation and more on meals, sightseeing, and activities. We strive to provide a stay where guests feel, “It was a good experience for the price.”
