This striking-red sheer cliff was created basalt lava that oxidized. You can see various volcanic ejecta here and at the end of the path view a heart-shaped hole that was miraculously created by sea-erosion within the rock. 鮮やかな赤色の岩からなる海岸です。玄武岩が高温酸化によって変色したものです。この海岸では様々なタイプの火山噴出物が見られます。また、海岸の遊歩道を進んでゆくと、波の侵食が作ったハート型の穴に出会うことができます。

Mt. Takuhi is the central pyroclastic cone of the Dozen Caldera, and the tallest mountain in the Dozen Islands (452m). Close to the summit of the mountain is the main building of the Takuhi Shrine, which is partially inside of a cave! The Takuhi Shrine is the oldest shrine building in the Oki Islands, and has been designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. This shrine is dedicated to the deity of safe sea voyages, and so people have come here to pray for safety at sea since long ago. The beautiful hike up to the shrine takes about 15 minutes from the car park.
