I was treated in the most unpleasant way ever by a female clerk.I visited to find out more about the campsite and politely informed them, but was told that the cafe was busy, so I ended up waiting at 303CAMP SIDE CAFE.In the first place, I didn't even get a word of welcome, so I thought the atmosphere inside the store was strange.I looked for at least an information sheet or flyer about the campsite, but I couldn't find it.I had been waiting for more than 10 minutes, so I got suspicious and asked, ``Isn't this the campground management office?'' I was told, ``It's a campsite.''And they just told me that the cafe was busy, and they didn't respond to me at all.Can't you just say, ``Please wait a moment,'' or ``Please wait for five more minutes?''There was nothing I could do, so I left in a fit of anger.Will they be able to accommodate you if you don't order something like baked goods, sandwiches, or drinks?Is it okay to entrust this beach and campground to a shop like this or an organization called Shima Asobi?I felt that the image of Shodoshima was severely damaged.There's nothing I can do about it, so I'll ask the town hall.

music? The volume is too loud. No matter where I was in the village, the drums of the autumn festival (mikoshi) were drowning out, so I couldn't rest even though I went on vacation.

SUP is the best. The calm Seto Inland Sea makes it easy to ride even for beginners. It was my second time doing SUP, but I didn't fall off and enjoyed the course that went around the opposite island, went to the next sandy beach, and then returned. If you are trying SUP for the first time, it is a good idea to get started here. They seem to be able to come up with a variety of courses depending on your level. The kind and pleasant staff will take your photo and send it to you on LINE. This is a service that we didn't do last time, and I think it's great to be able to keep it as a memory.It was hard to find the location, so I used the navigation system and was directed to another location nearby. Enter the narrow side road from the prefectural road and immediately turn left on the narrow road that looks like it will lead you to a house without crossing the bridge. There is an administration office on the beach, and the parking lot is in the plaza behind the administration office. There is no parking lot signage. When I went to check it out the day before, it had already been completed and the management office was closed. I was able to pick up the phone at another location, so I was able to answer the call. You can leave your valuables at the office. You can also take a hot shower after you're done.

The location is perfect!I'm currently obsessed with birds of prey. They fly towards the food. It's the same at any campsite.My highest score is ☆4.4 stars for everythingI was surprised to hear the sound of an airplane! It's not a big concern. Of course I will visit again.P.S.I was fishing for squid on a short jetty.
