Stop by the mystical “Underwater Torii Gate” floating in the Ariake Sea

The underwater torii gate of Ouo Shrine dates back about 300 years.
According to legend, a corrupt local official was once abandoned on Okinoshima Island (Tara Town), which becomes submerged at high tide, as punishment for his misdeeds. Just then, a giant fish called Namiuo appeared and rescued him.
Deeply repentant after this miracle, the official built Ouo Shrine and its torii gate standing in the sea.
Even today, many people visit the gate to pray for plentiful catches and safety at sea, and it continues to be cherished by the local community. The scenery changes dramatically with the tides, and its mystical atmosphere—where you can feel the pull of the moon—has made it a popular and much-talked-about sightseeing spot.


Stop at Michi-no-Eki Kashima, & receive one complimentary JA Beverage Saga juice

At Michi-no-Eki Kashima, you can enjoy the Tidal Flat Observatory, offering a sweeping panoramic view of the Ariake Sea, as well as Senja Market, a lively shop filled with a wide variety of local products.
