Cape Ogon

Cape Ogon

黄金岬

Hokkaido

A small headland jutting into the sea right beside Bikuni fishing port, reached by a 410m walking trail, offering sunset views over 'Treasure Island' (Takarajima) and the Shakotan coastline.

Why we picked it

It sits a short walk from the harbor in the town center, so it's usually visited by locals and day-trippers rather than the bus-tour crowds heading straight for Cape Kamui.
