Our guide
The Echizen Coast is the collective name for Fukui's Sea of Japan shoreline and the eastern shore of Wakasa Bay. It is part of Echizen-Kaga Kaigan Quasi-National Park. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.
It is a long stretch of coast, so decide which part you want to see and plan the journey on the map; we have not checked a public-transport route.
