The starting point for exploring the Sadamisaki Peninsula, located in Yawatahama City, Ehime. It's shaped like a dumbbell on the map, close to Kyushu. I arrived here by substitute bus due to railway construction, which was a unique experience.

Cycling to Sadamisaki Lighthouse
I rented an electric-assist bicycle from Hanamisaki at Misaki Port for 500 yen for 4 hours. The 15km ride to Sadamisaki Lighthouse, equivalent to Tokyo to Kawasaki, was surprisingly manageable. The route has gentle uphill slopes, easily tackled with electric assist, and enjoyable downhill sections. Along the way, I passed the Misaki Wind Park, a massive wind farm with turbines generating a distinct 'whooshing' sound. The scenery was breathtaking, with terraced mandarin orange fields and views of Kyushu. The final 1.8km to the lighthouse from the parking lot is a walk, but the path is well-paved and comfortable, offering stunning coastal views and unique geological formations like green schist. The strong winds are constant, shaping the vegetation. The journey to the very tip, including Mishima Island, felt like a true accomplishment.

Fisherman's Pride Sake — A local sake from Sadamisaki, produced by Matsuda Morizo, the last remaining sake brewery in Ikata. They also make shochu. I was offered a small tasting portion, which was very kind.
Ise-chan (Spiny Lobster) — Fresh spiny lobster available at the seafood direct sales market within the port complex.
Namako (Sea Cucumber) · ¥150/100g — Sea cucumber, priced at 150 yen per 100g, also available at the seafood market.
Jakoten (Fried Fish Paste) — A local specialty, fried fish paste, often sold as 'Jakokatsu' (jakoten cutlet). Many souvenir shops in the area sell it.
Electric-assist bicycle rental · ¥500/4h — Rented an electric-assist bicycle from Hanamisaki at Misaki Port for 500 yen for 4 hours. The flat saddle and 100% charged battery made the 15km ride to the lighthouse surprisingly easy, despite the distance.
Kyushu Ferry ticket · ¥1240 — A one-way ticket from Misaki Port to Saganoseki in Oita, Kyushu, costing 1240 yen. The journey takes 70 minutes.

Sadamisaki Lighthouse, 2935 Shono, Ikata, Nishiuwa District, Ehime 796-0823, Japan
Green Schist — A distinctive geological feature of the Sadamisaki Peninsula, especially visible along the walking path to the lighthouse. These green-colored metamorphic rocks are part of the 'Sanbagawa Metamorphic Belt,' formed when the 'Outer Zone' of Japan collided with the Eurasian continent. Unlike the more eroded 'Inner Zone,' these rocks show less erosion, resulting in the peninsula's rugged, mountainous terrain.
Searchlight Storage (Tanshotou Kakunouko) — Two concrete structures, large and small, built during WWII to store searchlights (tanshotou). These searchlights were used in conjunction with the lighthouse to illuminate suspicious ships and aircraft at night. Originally, rails were laid around the structures to move the searchlights. The top of the structures was covered with soil and vegetation for camouflage against aerial observation.
Oil Storage — A small warehouse built in 1953, originally used to store oil for the lighthouse.

Chuko-no-hi Monument — A stone monument commemorating the tragic history of the artillery battery. During firing drills in WWII, an explosion occurred, killing 14-16 soldiers. The monument serves as a reminder of this sad event.
Baoike (Fish Farm Pond) — A large artificial pond constructed after WWII, connecting Mishima Island to the mainland. It was originally used as a massive fish farm for shrimp and crabs until around 2010. It remains connected to the sea, and wild fish can still be seen swimming there.
Cave-style Artillery Battery Ruins — The ruins of a WWII artillery battery, featuring tunnels leading to gun emplacements facing the sea. The hard rock walls provided a stable base for the cannons and protection from aerial attacks. The Ikata Town government has invested in preserving and making these ruins accessible for visitors. The cannons were originally ordered from a German company during the Russo-Japanese War and later brought to this site.

Ferry Journey from Sadamisaki to Kyushu
I took the Kyushu Ferry from Misaki Port to Saganoseki in Oita, Kyushu. The ticket cost 1240 yen. The ferry ride is only 70 minutes, making it a quick and convenient way to cross. The ferry interior is comfortable, with basic carpeted seating, but also offers upgraded lounge seats with power outlets and even private rooms for an extra fee. I enjoyed a 'ferry set meal' of cup noodles and bread, a classic ferry experience. The journey offers views of the Sadamisaki Peninsula's tip and the lighthouse from the sea. The Bungo Channel, which the ferry crosses, can be a bit choppy, but overall, the ride is smooth and suitable for those prone to seasickness. Upon arrival at Saganoseki Port, there are buses connecting to Oita City and Takasakiyama Station, though bus frequency can be limited.
