Chigasaki is located in central Kanagawa Prefecture and is famous for its ocean beach.
Section of the beach in Chigasaki is called Southern Beach, inspired by "Southern All Stars," a famous Japanese pop singing group whose lead vocalist Keisuke Kuwata hails from Chigasaki. A popular swimming destination, Chigasaki is also well-known as the birthplace of Japanese surfing. A shop called "Goddess," located only about 20 meters from the shoreline, is the first surfboard shop in Japan. Bicycles with metal fittings for holding surfboards are prominent in the area.
The symbol of Southern Beach is Eboshi-iwa, a large hat-shaped rock that is visible from the coast.
The shoreline from Chigasaki to Kamakura is called Shonan.
