Today, Sunday, Ian and I drove east from my apartment. After about 20 minutes we crossed a bridge and were on Shichigahama (apparently an island separated from the mainland by a 100 or so meters of water. We proceeded to a park in the middle of the island and left Ian's car in a public parking lot in the small park. We then crossed to the water on the north side where we found a shrine on a little point. The sign said that it was the Togu Shrine. The picture bellow on the left is the main building. Near the entrance but off to the side was a smaller shrine (second picture). There is almost never anyone at these shrines so it is not possible to ask about them.
Shichigahama means seven beaches and we encounter numerous small bays with even smaller fishing villages. I did not count the villages or the bays so I can not verify the count of seven beaches, but I suspect that it really does not matter. The last three pictures show three of these ports.
