Flowering waves under the lighthouse

<p>Head straight for Yumegasaki Cape from here</p>

<p>Tsunoshima Lighthouse is right next to the park</p>

<p>Benches are actually a bit rare in Japan, so enjoy them whenever you can</p>

<p>Seaside grasses thrive in this environment</p>

<p>Some sculpture you can play in under the lighthouse</p>

<p>These wildflowers covered the grass in April; the park's gardens are seasonal</p>

<p>Morning glories have a strikingly similar name in Japanese and in English: asagao (morning face)</p>

Designed to merge with the cresting (“flowering” in Japanese) waves on this peninsula, Yumesakinami Park complements the Tsunoshima Lighthouse next to it. An enjoyable place to relax and enjoy the historic building and sea breeze, there are seasonal flower gardens here, too. Yumegasaki Cape is just two minutes away on foot. This is the northwestern most part of Tsunoshima.
