Yasaka Yahama

Japanese: 八坂八浜 - やさかやはま
Yasaka Yahama

A coast facing the Kii Channel in southeastern Tokushima Prefecture. The coast stretches for about 13 kilometers from Mugi Town in Kaifu County to Asakawa Bay in Kaiyo Town, with alternating capes (slope) and coves (shorelines) such as Osaka and Uchizuma Beach. Part of the Muroto-Anan Coast National Park, the northern coast was once famous for its cherry blossoms, but the number has decreased due to the construction of National Route 55 (Tosa Kaido). Uchizuma Beach is used for surfing.
