How to apply
Apply through the dedicated Google Form. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis and will close once capacity is reached.
Lastly
As adults, we don’t often get the chance to play in the sand, so it might be nice to take it easy at Shio-Ashiya Beach and enjoy touching and playing with the sand once in a while. It sounds like not only kids, but adults too, can have fun together!
