This tour will explore the Unosumii area and Nebama Beach, which are also included in the Michinoku Coastal Trail course.
Highlights of the tour include a storytelling session at Miraikan, a facility for passing on the lessons of the earthquake, a 14.5-meter-high sluice gate built at the mouth of the Unosumai River, and the Kamaishi Unosumai Reconstruction Stadium, a symbol of reconstruction after the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Visitors can learn about the story of Kamaishi's recovery from the disaster while touring Sanriku Geopark geosites such as Nebama Beach and Meoto-rock.

The “Ohakozaki Senjojiki” is a geo-site of the Sanriku Geopark. This unexplored spot is located at the tip of the Hakozaki Peninsula, further from the Michinoku Coastal Trail course.
Walking about 3.5 km through the forest and down the steep cliff, you will find a spectacular view of rugged rock surfaces that have been carved by wind, rain, and waves over a long period of time from granite that hardened when magma cooled about 120 million years ago. The contrast between the blue of the ocean, the white of the rocks, and the red of the torii (torii gate) of the Ohakozaki Shrine makes for a breathtaking view. This is a recommended spot for hikers seeking a secluded spot.

On the fishing boat cruise, a fisherman will guide you around Kamaishi Bay in a small fishing boat!
Kamaishi Bay is a beautiful bay, half of which is an industrial port and half of which is a Sanriku Geopark, where nature remains intact.
The fisherman will show you the Rias coast's landscapes and take you to scenic spots in Kamaishi Bay accessible only by small boats.
Feel free to ask the fisherman any questions about fishing in Kamaishi.
You will also have the chance to hear about the Great East Japan Earthquake's devastating tsunami and see up close the Guinness World Record-holding deepest bay mouth breakwater (63 meters).

You will have the opportunity to observe scallops and seaweed being farmed in Otsuchi Bay, which faces the Pacific Ocean. What you can see will vary with the seasons, making each visit a unique experience! It's a rare chance to understand how seafood that has been cherished in the region for generations is cultivated, something you can't grasp without going out on a boat. The scenery from the fishing boats and the living creatures also change with the seasons, making it an enjoyable tour for both children and adults.

Kamaishi was severely damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011.
The Miraikan was built as a facility to promote learning about disaster prevention to protect future lives from disasters. The museum exhibits materials and videos showing the damage at the time of the disaster, and conveys the events of the earthquake and the lessons that should be learned.
Visitors can learn key stories about the city of Kamaishi.
