Makuhari Beach — Attraction in Chiba

The beach is a joke. Apparently it's "no one's land" as both Chiba prefecture and Makuhari had gave up on it so it's full of trash and it's not maintained. I don't mind that nobody is cleaning it but why is there trash in the first place? I am repeatedly told (by Japanese) that Japanese don't litter and are courteous of others, so where did the trash come from? Is it growing in the sand? On the bright side, you can fabricate something to seat on from all the wood / trash laying around. That being said, I haven't seen any trash cans but I wasn't looking too much either.

Swimming is not allowed which was shock at first but honestly would you swim here even if it was? Water is so black / brown you can't even see 1mm below the surface. You have all factories and industrial zone on the left, Tokyo and industrial zones on the right.

There is basically no parking. There might be 1 or 2 paid options around (like on ZOZO stadium) but the beach itself is not worth paying 1 yen, let alone whatever ripoff price they might ask for.

The view is nice (at night), but nothing spectacular. You can kinda see Tokyo but it's a bit too far.

There are some toilets but no power outlet anywhere near the area so it's a problem if you are with electric bike (sorry for trying to be environmentally friendly). This is Japan problem in general rather than the area itself.

So in general, it would be 1 star but with very few beaches and no access to sea in Tokyo area (all shore land sold to corporations and factories which is crazy) I appreciate that there is at...

The beach offers a natural charm, though occasionally marred by scattered garbage and burnt wood. Despite this, the view remains captivating, especially during clear weather sunsets. Unfortunately, the experience is tainted by the monopolistic practices of Yu Onsen and D-Parking, who control access to the nearby parking. Although ample free space exists, it's unfairly restricted by Yu Onsen, compelling visitors to pay 600 yen for parking just to access the beach. This inconvenience calls for government intervention to rectify...
