About us

Our site name is "Tanegashima photographer Shige-P's blog".

The catchphrase of the site is "Tanegashima photographer Shige-P's blog" and the address of the site is https://tn-surf.com.

The administrator of this content is "Shige-P," a photographer living in Tanegashima.

This site was established in the hope that many surfers and tourists will visit Tanegashima, and to post photos that will serve as "living proof" that I surfed there.

Shige-P, the administrator of this site, has lived in Tanegashima for 7 years, but he is not in Tanegashima now due to his work.

We hope to eventually return to Tanegashima, and this site will introduce photos taken over the years, but we ask for your understanding that we will only be fully active once we return to Tanegashima.

This site will also include articles about Tanegashima's fascinating and wonderful customs, events, places of interest, and maritime issues.

We hope this site will be a useful reference for those who are interested in Tanegashima, those who are considering a surf trip to Tanegashima, and those who are considering moving to Tanegashima for the slow life.
