Tucked along the Kumano Nada coast in southern Mie Prefecture, Mihama is a place whose character is shaped by the long pebble shore of Shichiri Mihama Beach and a mild climate suited to citrus growing. This Pacific-facing beach forms part of the Kii Peninsula’s eastern coastline, with dark stones and open sea defining its edge. Mihama is known in Mie for mikan mandarins, cultivated locally and central to the area’s agricultural identity. The wider coast also belongs to the cultural landscape of the Kumano Kodo Iseji, an old pilgrimage route connecting Ise with the Kumano Sanzan shrines.
