天気良いからちょっと期待しないで立ち寄ったのだが、加計呂麻島や東シナ海側の島が連なる間に溺れ谷の入り江が複雑な模様を作り出して美しい。眼下のシダが柔らかい緑の芽をつけ、揺れている。こんなに気軽に奄美大島全体を眺望を得て、さっきまでいた加計呂麻島に別れを告げた。

古仁屋の市街地や大島海峡、加計呂麻島、その先にある請島や与路島も見わたすことができる眺望スポットです。 天気が良ければ、さらに遠くの水平線に徳之島を見ることができます。 標高410メートルの山頂周辺では、1月下旬には緋寒桜が綺麗でした。

曇ってましたが加計呂麻島がよく見えて最高の景色でした! 展望所入口の看板が2つあるのですが、駐車場から見て奥の方が立派な看板だったのでそちらに行きました。手前の看板でも同じところに辿り着くのかしら??
