SHIOFUKI Iwa (Rocks) dynamic whale-like spouting
useful information
Iwaizaki, located at the southernmost tip of Sanriku Fukko National Park, is a cape at the entrance to Kesennuma Bay. The limestone geology has been eroded by seawater over many years, and at the tip of the cape is Shiofukiiwa (Shiofukiiwa means "rock that erupts water" in Japanese), where a dynamic eruption can be seen every time waves crash into the rock. The nearby Ryu no Matsu (means "Dragon Pine" in Japanes) is a must-see. It's a single pine tree that miraculously survived among the many trees damaged by the tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake. It was named after its resemblance to a dragon rising.

KESENNUMA Fishing Port one of the main landing ports for fishing boats
useful information
Kesennuma Fishing Port, which faces the Pacific Ocean, has been a fishing industry since the late 16th century. It boasts some of the highest landings of bonito, pacific saury, and swordfish in Japan It also has the highest shark fin production in Japan. It is one of the main landing ports for fishing boats that operate off the coast of Sanriku, one of the world's three largest fishing grounds, and is also one of the bases for Japan's deep-sea fishing  (mainly tuna). It is lit up at night, so you can enjoy the fantastic lights. Additionally, at Kesennuma City's inner bay, there is the gourmet and shopping spot "Osakana Ichiba (fish market)," which sells freshly caught seafood, locally produced marine products, souvenirs, and more.
