観光客がここに行くには、JR金沢駅から「北鉄浅野川線」に約17分乗車して「内灘駅」で下車。徒歩約15分、やがて目の前に海が見えてきます。
To get to this coast, take the Hokuriku Railroad Asanogawa Line from JR Kanazawa Station for about 17 minutes and get off at Uchinada Station. After that, if you walk in the residential area for about 15 minutes, you will soon see the sea in front of you.

たしかに砂浜は広大で、海岸は静寂に包まれていました。ちなみに、ここは今は静かな砂浜ですが、かつては米軍試射場の建設に反対する市民による闘争が行われたという歴史も持っています。
The sandy beach was vast and the beach was quiet. By the way, this is a quiet place now, but it has a history of a struggle by citizens who opposed the construction of the US military test range.

移り変わる景色を楽しみながら、海岸をゆっくりと散歩しました。夕暮れが近づくと、ドライバーたちが集まってきていました。
晴れた日の夕方には夕陽を見に行く、うらやましいライフスタイルです。
I took a leisurely stroll along the coast, enjoying the changing scenery. As dusk approached, drivers were gathering.
In their lifestyle, do they go to see the sunset on a clear day at dusk? I envied them.
