Anego-hama beach
One of the most beautiful beach in Itoshima. Anego no Hama Beach is a beach of “singing”
sand that makes a squeaking sound when people walk on it. It is said that singing sand exists
only on clean beaches, and that 90 such beaches used to exist in Japan. Today, however,
just 20 singing sand beaches remain due to environmental changes, making beaches like
Anego-hama a rarity.
