Tranquil Coastline under a Brooding Sky
大瀬崎の穏やかな海岸線
A serene view of Cape Osezaki’s rocky shoreline, where deep green coastal forests meet the calm, turquoise waters of Suruga Bay. The overcast sky and distant hills add dramatic contrast, highlighting the natural beauty and quiet isolation of this rural Japanese peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture.
In the left mid-ground lies the Osezaki Juniper Forest, an ancient grove of around 130 naturally growing juniper trees—some believed to be over 1,000 years old. This is one of the rarest and most ecologically unique forests of its kind in Japan.
On clear days, this vantage point offers a breathtaking view of Mt. Fuji rising above Suruga Bay. Remote coastal fishing villages, centuries-old trees, and the iconic snow-capped peak make for one of my favorite seascape scenarios. Alas, capturing a clear view of Mt. Fuji can be elusive, often requiring multiple visits and patience. It is this pursuit that is part of the magic—and a welcome escape from the relentless pace of my daily grind in the concrete jungle of Tokyo’s metropolis.
