Ikata occupies the narrow Sadamisaki Peninsula in Ehime Prefecture, between the Seto Inland Sea to the north and the Uwa Sea to the south. This long westward reach of Shikoku is defined by steep coastal slopes, small fishing harbours and citrus groves. Roads follow the peninsula’s ridge, while ferries from its western end link Shikoku with Kyushu. Ikata is also home to Shikoku Electric Power’s Ikata Nuclear Power Station, a major presence on the peninsula. At the far western cape, Sadamisaki Lighthouse, completed in 1918, marks the approach to the Bungo Channel.
