Hamayu bloom in a place sacred to lovers
夏井ヶ浜のハマユウ自生地
With the Genkai Sea as a backdrop, about 1,000 wild hamayu (or giant crinum lilies) grow. The pretty white flowers give off a sweet scent after sunset and the fresh green and white flowers are beautiful. They are a prefectural natural treasure. They have been designated as an endangered species requiring conservation and protection. Hidden in the adjacent Natsuigahamahamayu Park are a ”love bell” and cobblestone heart and it is considered a sacred place for lovers.
Late July ~ early August
