Kannonzaki is a scenic cape on the southern tip of Himeshima, known for its dramatic black obsidian cliffs, which are designated as a National Natural Monument. At the top of the cliffs stands a small shrine called “Sennindō,” a sacred place where locals pray for safe travels and good fishing. The area offers breathtaking ocean views, especially at sunset. It’s a peaceful stop with a viewing platform and rest area, ideal for photos and reflection. Easily visited on the way to Himeshima Lighthouse, Kannonzaki combines nature, geology, and spiritual heritage in one quiet, powerful location.

It is reputed to benefit conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, skin and neurological disorders, and is even drinkable for digestive ailments. The small public bathing facility offers sea views and views of Shikoku through wide windows. Open midday to evening, the entrance fee is ¥310 for adults and ¥150 for children from outside the village.
