Welcome to Onjuku Beach: A relaxing paradise in a small town on the southeastern coast of Chiba Prefecture.

The beach's closest station, Onjuku Station, is located approximately two hours away from Tokyo and is serviced by both express and local lines. About a 10-minute walk from the station, the beach is frequented by Chiba locals and tourists alike. The central part of the beachside is packed with rental spots for everything you need: lockers, towels, float devices, chairs, and umbrellas. Plus, there's plenty of food and drink available, too.
