Japanese: 七里長浜 - しちりながはま
Shichirinagahama
This coast faces the Sea of ​​Japan on the west side of the Tsugaru Peninsula in northwest Aomori Prefecture. It is about 30 km long, with the Byobuyama sand dunes at its back, stretching from the mouth of Lake Jusan to Ajigasawa. In winter, it is hit by strong seasonal winds. On Byobuyama, there is a windbreak and sand-prevention forest created by the Hirosaki Domain during the Edo period, which protects the rice paddies of the Tsugaru Plain that spreads out behind it. Currently, watermelons and melons are cultivated in the sand dune area, and there is a sand dune branch of the Aomori Agricultural Experiment Station. It is part of Tsugaru Quasi-National Park.
