Nanatsugama (Seven Caves) has been designated as a National Natural Monument. It is a scenic spot created by the erosion of basalt rocks exposed to the raging waves of the Genkai-nada Sea, which is known for its rough seas. The cliff is deeply gouged, and as the name indicates, there are seven caves lined up in parallel, leaving one drop-jawed with the wonder of nature.
Take the "Ika-maru" cruise to admire Nanatsugama from the sea and enjoy cruising along Yobuko.
