The beach resort most frequently visited by Tokyo residents in the hot summer is Kamakura, which can be reached in an hour by train along the coastline. The swimming season of Sanza Beach is only two short months in summer, but Kamakura also shows different charms in other seasons. There’s more to Kamakura than swimming and sunbathing. You can surf, paddleboard, wakeboard, flyboard, sea kayak and more.
