Nishiizu

Nishiizu lies along Suruga Bay on the western shore of the Izu Peninsula, where a deeply indented volcanic coast meets steep, forested hills. Rather than forming one dense urban centre, the municipality extends across small coastal settlements and inland slopes. Near Nishina, Dogashima is known for sea-eroded islets and the Tensodo Cave, a cavern whose ceiling opening lets daylight reach the water. Nishiizu forms part of the Izu Peninsula UNESCO Global Geopark, placing its coastal geology in a wider regional context. Fishing harbours, hot-spring inns and boat excursions shape the rhythm of life here. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Nishiizu and the Izu Peninsula.
