Local time UTC+9Checked 8,609 viewsHDOther

This live stream shows Shirahama, a coastal town on the western tip of the Kii Peninsula in Wakayama Prefecture. It is a useful window for anyone checking sea and sky conditions before a trip or simply curious about the Pacific coast of western Japan.

About the town

Shirahama sits on the Pacific side of the Kii Peninsula, a region of steep green hills, warm water and long coastlines. The town is best known as a seaside resort, with sandy beaches, hot springs and a long history of visitors coming from Osaka and Kyoto to relax by the ocean. Its setting between the mountains and the sea gives it a calm, unhurried character outside the summer season.

What to watch on the stream

Because the camera is listed as an other-type view, the exact frame is best judged when you open the live player. Coastal views like this are usually most interesting in the early morning, when the light comes in low over the water, and in the late afternoon, when the sea takes on warmer tones. Changes in wind and swell are often easiest to notice in calm daylight, and weather can shift quickly along this coast.

Climate and getting there

Shirahama has a humid subtropical climate with hot, rainy summers and mild winters, so spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable times to visit. Typhoon season from late summer into early autumn can bring strong winds and heavy rain. Nearby cameras on VizCams include a view at Shirarahama Beach, a short distance away, which can help you compare conditions along the same stretch of coast.
