As Japan’s highest mountain, the legendary Mount Fuji stands 12,388 feet (3,776 meters) tall. Travellers from around the world head to Hakone National Park to see the mount Fuji, and over 1 million of them hike all the way to the top each year for the 360-degree views of Lake Ashi, the Hakone mountains, and the Owakudani Valley.
“The scene from the Kumomi cove. Twin Rocks in the foreground is called ‘Ushitukiiwa’. Rope is tied between the rock, that’s a thing to pray for the safety of ship and port. Mount Fuji has registered as a World Cultural Heritage on June 2013.”
Kumomi Onsen is located in west-side of Izu Peninsula, Shizuoka. It is very small town but has great Onsen and beach which has a great view of Mount Fuji.
On a clear day, you can look north from the beach and see the mountain perfectly framed by the cliffs at the mouth of the harbour. Here, just a 3-minute boat ride from the quayside is a large rock outcrop that has at some time in the distant past been cleft in two. The rubble from this cataclysm has piled up on the seafloor to create a playground of swim-throughs and small caves.
