Malibu Recommended "Kamakura Cycling Course"

Hello. This is Seno from Malibu Hotel Concierge.
Although the days have been worrisome due to the coronavirus, the sea here is still calm.
The spring tide has completely risen and the low tide time arrives during the day, so there are children on the shore to catch the seaweeds that have been washed up, which makes your heart feel at ease.

In such a case, I would like you to enjoy a brilliant resort stay just by feeling, so today, I would like to introduce the "cycling course" where you can go around Kamakura with an electric bicycle that you experienced a while ago.
It takes about 10 minutes from the Riviera Zushi Marina to the Kamakura area with a hotel electric bicycle. There are many famous places in Kamakura, so you can feel free to drop by at a shop that you care about if you are cycling.
First, I left Malibu Hotel for Tsuruoka Hachimangu. As soon as you pass through the tunnel from the Riviera Zushi Marina, you will reach the Zaimokuza coast. There are few cars in the morning and it feels very good.

Before departing from Wakamiyaoji, we stop at Honkakuji Temple.
There is a large wooden sandalwood tree and a magnificent main hall, and the deep precincts are quiet and tasteful.
The charm "Nigiri Fuku" here is said to be popular locally.
Then leave Honkakuji Temple and head to Wakamiyaoji. From here, the scenery called The Kamakura.
Along the street, there are souvenir shops, Kamakura Sculpture Hall, soba shops where warabi mochi is popular, fashionable bakeries, coffee shops, and so on.
On busy days, we recommend getting off your bicycle and taking a leisurely walk to Tsuruoka Hachimangu.

After leaving Tsuruoka Hachimangu, head to Hase for the Great Buddha.
Line 311 and Yuigahama Odori are full of unique shops. There are many Taisho modern buildings that make you want to take photos and small restaurants, which are recently popular areas.
Say hello to the Great Buddha at Kotoku-in and then head to Hasedera Temple. Kamakura's representative flower temple enjoys various flowers throughout the season and is full of highlights such as the Benten Cave and the viewing platform.
If I have time, I would like to stop at the nearby Kamakura Literature Museum, but it is temporarily closed.

On the way back, feel refreshed by the sea!
I pass by a bicycle with a surfboard and a person in a wet suit.
The atmosphere changes completely from Kamakura, and it feels like a resort at a stretch. Ride a bicycle to the distant Riviera Zushi Marina.
After returning to the hotel, take a break at Malibu Farm Restaurant.
Even though it is an easy electric bicycle, it is a 4-hour cycling course, so the agave lemonade with a refreshing sweetness will stain your tired body!

Other than this, the "Course around Jyomyoji" famous for bamboo grove, and the "Long distance course to Enoshima" at a stretch.
In addition, we have prepared a map in the guest room of the hotel in consideration of the "walking course" where you can enjoy the nearby Showayama Park and old roads on foot.
Even if you are not staying overnight, we will hand you the map if you secretly call the front desk, so if you can safely overcome this patience period, please come visit us.
