雷電海岸 / Raiden Seashore

在雷電海岸（位於岩內町）有被稱作刀掛岩的象徵的奇特岩石。刀掛岩如其名形狀如同放置日本刀在那一般。海岸線並非是沙岸而是小石頭很多的海岸。從停車場有可以走向懸崖下海岸的階梯。在那裡有20世紀初活躍的小說家-有島武郎的紀念碑。有島武郎的代表作之一為描繪在岩內町的苦惱著畫家的人生作品。

Raiden Seashore (Iwanai Town) includes Katanagake Rock, which is the town's symbolic curiously shaped rock. 'Katana' means Japanese samurai sword, and 'gake' means 'putting' in English. This rock looks like a big stand for a sword. Raiden Seashore is not sandy, but consists of stones naturally polished by the waves. They are mainly just pebbles, but are sometimes larger oval stones like rugby balls. There is an iron stairway down to the shore from the parking area. There is also a monument for Takeo Arishima, a famous novelist of early 20th century and one of his masterpieces was inspired by a painter in Iwanai.
