Kaigan Park Adventure Field

Located south of JR Fruit Park Sendai Arahama, this park offers a view of the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Sendai Plain to the west from the hill observatory. The park has a day-camp site where visitors can barbecue, in addition to an adventure-style playground that encourages children to play creatively, an area with large playground equipment that includes a “fluffy” air trampoline (fuwafuwa dome), and a playground for young children with sandbox and swings. The park is designed to be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
There are also spots throughout the park where visitors can learn about the disaster. Trees uprooted by the tsunami, together with information boards, are displayed to provide a sense of the menacing side of nature. Plus, the presence of Evacuation Hill and the signboards that guide people to it will also help turn people’s attention toward preparedness for possible future disasters. Visitors also have the opportunity to learn about Sendai’s tsunami countermeasures, which include evacuation and the concept of multiple defenses. Park staff will be happy to answer any questions. It is possible to participate in disaster prevention drills held regularly on the premises, and group tours are also provided (advance consultation required).
