Byobuiwa (folding-screen rock)
ABOUT
THIS
SPOT
Byobuiwa rock is an andesite with a height of 13 meters, and was named for its resemblance to a Japanese folding screen (Byobu) as it rises from the ocean surface. There are 5 smaller rocks in a line towards the north-west which indicate a change in the plateau.
There is an observation area along National Route 178, where you can relax and take in the view of Byobuiwa rock.
RECOMMENDED
PHOTO SPOT
The observation deck is a great spot for photographs, not only of Byobuiwa Rock, but for the magnificent, panoramic view of the ocean.
