磯—坂本海岸

南三陸・海のビジターセンターのすぐ目の前にある坂本海岸は、志津川湾沿岸の岩の多い浜です。海岸に沿って並ぶ岩が大きな海洋捕食者に対して自然の障壁となっているこの磯は、藻類や小さな水生生物にとって理想的なすみかです。小さな水生生物に含まれるのは、多種の二枚貝と巻貝、ヤドカリ、イソガニ、ミドリイソギンチャク、キヒトデ、そしてミミズハゼやアゴハゼなどの小魚です。


Intertidal Zone—Sakamoto Seashore

The Sakamoto Seashore is a rocky beach on Shizugawa Bay, right next to the Minamisanriku Marine Visitor Center. With the rocks along the shore forming a natural barrier against large marine predators, the intertidal zone is an ideal habitat for algae and smaller aquatic creatures. The latter include various types of clams and seashells, hermit crabs, Asian shore crabs, rainbow bottom anemones, Japanese common starfish, and small fish such as the flat-headed goby and the fork-tongued goby.
