Sanctuary Cape What is Blue Cave?
Sanctuary Cape Blue Cave is a tourist destination located in Suzu City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
At the tip of the peninsula, it is a spot where you can feel the roughness of the Sea of Japan.
It's a facility that has a lot of bad reviews, but I personally enjoyed it so I'll introduce it.
Operated by the famous inn "Lamp no Yado"
The Blue Cave is run by an accommodation facility called "Ramp no Yado".
It is a famous ryokan that is often featured on TV, and the Sea of Japan spreads out in front of you.
I'd like to stay there once, but it's a ryokan that I can't afford because it's a supermarket remote area with more than 5 per person per night.
Sanctuary Cape Blue Cave Highlights
Let's take a look at the blue cave.
First, buy a ticket at the shop building.
The price is bullish at 1500 yen as a set with the observatory.
At the unmanned entrance, hold the barcode of the ticket to enter.
Don't lose your ticket as you will need it when you leave.
View from the observatory
Immediately after entering, there is an observatory that protrudes from the cliff.
Below you can see the lamp inn.
The observatory has no pillars, so be careful as the tip will shake more than you think.
The number of people is also limited to about 5 people.
By the way, you can also climb the building in front of the observatory.
It is the scenery seen from the top of the building.
The scenery doesn't change that much, so only those who are physically fit should climb.
Road to the blue cave
Next, aim for the blue cave.
It's about 5 minutes on foot because it's on the same site.
There was a really bent tree.
You can see the strength of the wind blowing from the sea.
Go through this red gate to the blue cave.
Be prepared for the steep slopes leading up to the Blue Cave..
By the way, I have no choice but to come back on this road.
I finally arrived at the blue cave.
On hot summer days, you may want to avoid visiting.
Blue Grotto
Let's go into the blue cave.
The cave is small, about 8% of the total in the range shown in the photo.
In the center of the cave, there is water in a square.
If you lower the line of sight of the camera so that the scenery is reflected on the surface of the water, you can take a picture like that.
By the way, it's all thanks to the lights that it looks blue.
There is also a cave connected to the sea, so you can enjoy the view of the Sea of Japan.
It was a pretty high day, so it was usually powerful.
The stones falling around here seem to be power stones ...
Well, many amulets are mass-produced at the factory, and I think the important thing is to believe.
It used to be a rustic cave, but now it is exposed to man-made objects, which is one of the causes of bad publicity.
However, if you do not specialize in photography in local tourist destinations, it will be difficult to attract customers, so I feel that it cannot be said that it is generally bad.
I have to use something like "Enjoy the nature of Noto!" In the advertising phrase.
Go back the way you came back and go through the same gate.
The shops are quite substantial, so let's stop by.
Japan's three major power spots?
It claims to be one of Japan's three major power spots, but the grounds for it are sparse.
If it is a power spot from ancient times, it may be a place of training such as Shugendo, or it may be enshrined in the area, but there is no trace of it.
I think that raising the hurdle by saying extra things also leads to bad publicity.
It's not so bad from an attraction point of view, but I personally feel it's a waste.
Required Time
30 minutes if you just go around.
I don't think it will take an hour to go around while taking pictures.

The price is 1500 yen for adults and I think it's a little expensive.

Access is messy because it is located at the tip of the Noto Peninsula.
Even if you try to go by bus, you need to get off at the bus stop in the photo and walk about 1km.
If possible, use a rental car.

Finally
The blue cave on the Noto Peninsula is a notorious spot.
It's certainly illuminated by artificial lights, and the price is a little high, but if you understand that, you can enjoy it normally.
In the first place, you will never come to the tip of the Noto Peninsula many times in your life, so let's enter because it's a good idea to come close.
