The park is situated near the Tsunoshima Lighthouse, which was designed by British engineer Richard Henry Brunton.
The lighthouse adjacent to the park is one of only 16 lighthouses in Japan constructed from exposed stone.
The park area sits on land characterized by unique coastal dune flora adapted to high salt-spray environments.
The island is connected to the mainland by the 1,780-meter Tsunoshima Bridge, which is a major landmark viewed from the island's periphery.
Sezakiyono Park is a coastal public park situated on the northern end of Tsunoshima Island in Yamaguchi Prefecture. The park provides panoramic views of the Sea of Japan and the northern coastline of the island. It serves as a primary viewing location for the Tsunoshima Lighthouse, a stone structure built in 1876. The site features groomed walking paths and grassy areas integrated into the natural dune landscape. Because it is located at the island's extremity, it offers an unobstructed perspective of the maritime horizon. The park area includes public restroom facilities and a small parking zone for visitors. It is maintained as an open-access outdoor space for sightseeing and nature observation.

Bring a windbreaker, as the coastal location is frequently exposed to strong sea breezes.
Wear comfortable, closed-toe walking shoes due to the sandy and uneven nature of the surrounding coastal terrain.
Combine your visit with the nearby Tsunoshima Lighthouse Museum located immediately adjacent to the park grounds.
Do not attempt to swim in the waters directly adjacent to the park, as the rocky coastline and strong currents are hazardous.
