Cape Irago & Atsumi Peninsula — Toyohashi to Iragomisaki.
The Atsumi Peninsula points a long, gentle finger of farmland and surf coast into the Pacific southwest of Nagoya. Route 259 runs its spine from Toyohashi to Cape Irago, where a historic white lighthouse marks the meeting of Ise Bay, Mikawa Bay, and the open ocean. Easy, breezy coastal riding with a ferry link to Ise-Shima at the tip.
