It's known for its dramatic rock formations sculpted by the waves and is particularly famous for its beautiful sunset views. The name "Chigogafuchi" literally translates to "Child's Abyss," and it carries a somber legend about a child (or several children) from a monastery in Kamakura who tragically threw themselves into the abyss.
