爪白海岸と足摺海底館水中観測所


竜串湾の西側に位置する爪白海岸は、地質学で興味深い場所であり観光名所です。海面下から現在の位置へ徐々に上昇した地面は、泥の平地と旧河口で構成され、多くの異なる種類の生痕化石を含んでいます。訪問者は、海岸を南に向かい、レトロフューチャーな足摺海底館水中天文台へと歩くことができます。赤と白のパイプのような入口は、歩道の終点から、やや高い通路を通ってアクセスできます。独特の水族館の構造には海面下7メートルに観測室を有し、魚その他の海洋生物の自然の生息環境で見ることができます。


The Tsumajiro Coast and the Ashizuri Kaiteikan Underwater Observatory


The Tsumajiro Coast, located on the west side of Tatsukushi Bay, is a place of geological interest and a tourist attraction. Its ground, which gradually rose from beneath sea level to its current position, is composed of mud flats and a former estuary, and contains many different types of trace fossils. Visitors can walk south along the shore toward the retro-futuristic Ashizuri Kaiteikan Underwater Observatory. The red-and-white, pipe-like entrance can be reached along a raised walkway from the end of the walking path. The distinctive aquarium structure has an observation chamber 7 meters below the surface of the sea, where visitors can view fish and other marine creatures in their natural habitat.
