Peak of summer holiday season is over in Japan.
In Amanohashidate, you can still swim and water shower is available to use. (I checked yesterday. Although possibly they will close the shower by this weekend.)
Enjoy calm and clear sea ;D The picture was taken at 15:00 on 19th Aug 2014 in Amanohashidate. Most of Japanese people will go home around 15:00 but if you want to avoid heat outside probably after 15:00 is better on sunny day.
At Amanohashidate, you can always can find your own space, No crowds!!Because the beach is more than 3km long!!
