Cross the Sandbar to Chiringashima Island

Chiringashima is the largest island in Kinkowan Bay, located off the coast of Tarahama Beach. From March to October, at low tide a sandbar creates a temporary path to the uninhabited island. This natural phenomenon lasts between two and four hours, allowing visitors to cross the 800-meter sandbar to explore Chiringashima. As the sandbar resembles a bridge, the island is considered a matchmaking spot for couples, and is even nicknamed “marriage island.”

The island has an observation deck with views of the coastline and bay, as well as places where visitors can fish, gather shellfish, or relax on the pristine white sand. Botany fans can enjoy looking for some of the endangered plants that grow on the island.

Near the beach there is a fully equipped campsite for those who wish to linger. In nearby hills you will find a viewing platform with an excellent bird’s-eye view of the island, which is also a popular spot for viewing cherry blossoms in the spring.

渡過沙洲前往知林島

知林島是錦江灣最大的島嶼，緊鄰多良濱海岸。每年10月至隔年3月，遊客可在退潮時渡過長約800公尺的沙洲步行前往這座名為知林島的無人島。通常持續2至4小時的退潮期間，海水退去，沙洲盡現。沙洲像一座橋，因此該島被情侶們視為結緣聖地，並得名為「結緣之島」。

遊客可駐足觀景台眺望海灣美景，或在海灘戲水、釣魚、採集貝殼，盡情享受純天然的白色沙灘。島上生長著南國牛皮消等多種瀕臨絕滅的植物，植物愛好者可多加探尋，一定會有驚喜發現。

在知林島對岸設有生態露營場地，希望深度感受自然的遊客可在此參加烤肉一日遊，品嚐鹿兒島特產黑豬肉；或者加入溫泉之旅，體驗當地特有的「沙蒸溫泉」、帶露天泡池的天然溫泉。亦可登上附近山丘的觀景台，一覽海島風光。此外，知林島還是賞櫻勝地，每逢春季，遊人如織，絡繹不絕。
