the "Floating Torii Gate" of Ouo Shrine stands on the shallow area of the ocean in Tara-cho, which has 6 meter tide difference. It changes its appearance every time you look at it, and it is a famous tourist spot.
In August, Yukino Lantern Festival will be held, the view of 500 lanterns and torii on the ocean is very romantic.
