Passing by the Kanuki Beach on the way to the View-O

Thou shall not ignore the tiny things that also contribute to the beauty of the place. AMEN!

Greeting the late afternoon sun

Another angle of the seaside community from the observatory

With only a 100-yen (per adult) and 50-yen (per child) entrance fee, we enjoyed the astounding colors of sunset as it created a silhouette on Mt. Fuji and brought a magical feeling against the glistening diamond-like waters of Suruga Bay.

From the 30-meter-high observatory view, we enjoyed the panoramic view of the seaside community and the Numazu Port in Shizuoka Prefecture.

The View-O Water Gate in Numazu Port was designed to protect the seaside community and prevent tsunami.
