Best Beaches in Tottori

Tottori’s coastline along the Sea of Japan features diverse geological formations and deep cultural roots. The San'in Kaigan UNESCO Global Geopark encompasses the rugged ria inlets of Uradome Coast and the expansive Tottori Sand Dunes. Hakuto Beach is the legendary setting of the "White Rabbit of Inaba" myth, while the 15-kilometer Yumigahama Peninsula offers a distinct bow-shaped sandy shore.
