To reach the Sandanbeki cave, you can take the high-speed elevator located at the “free rest area” to the right of the Sandanbeki viewing platform.

The course inside the cave is about 200 meters long, and it takes about 30 minutes to complete one circuit. There are quite a lot of things to see here, just like the attractions at a theme park, so I highly recommend it.

➁【Yasoiso Parking Lot】 Although the footing is bad, you can enjoy untouched nature‼︎
Yasoiso parking lot is a parking lot near Sandanbeki. The Yasoiso parking lot is located approximately 1.57 km from the Sandanbeki intersection on Prefectural Route 34 towards Kushimoto. The address is Shirahama-cho, Nishimuro-gun, Wakayama Prefecture. By the way, Yasoiso parking lot is also called “Saru Park”.
❶ Origin of the name “Saru Park”
The Yasoiso parking lot is known as “Saru Park” by regular anglers. The name comes from the fact that the rock at the end of the Yasoiso Iso parking lot was called “Saru” by anglers. Saru is a local word that refers to a rocky shore with a steep cliff.
❷There are hidden spots for fishing
There is a little-known fishing spot at “Saru” on the rocky shore just beyond the Yasoiso parking lot. A secret spot for fishing is the tip of the left side of the rocky shore “Saru” when viewed from the sea. There are spots here where schools of fish tend to gather. For this reason, many anglers still visit Jiiso’s “Saru.”
❸Jiiso’s “Saru” has poor footing
″Saru” in Jiiso is a place with poor footing. Enter the forest from the Yasoiso parking lot and walk about 30 meters along the rocky shore path until you see the rocky shore. Saru, a rocky shore, slopes down toward the sea and has a rocky surface, so it can be slippery if you don’t wear non-slip shoes. When visiting Saru on the island, be sure to wear non-slip shoes.
