花ざかりの君たちへ (2007) | Iwai Beach — Episode 5’s School-versus-School Shoreline

Episode 5 of Fuji TV’s 2007『花ざかりの君たちへ〜イケメン♂パラダイス〜』, broadcast on 31 July 2007, takes the students away from their usual campus locations for the summer storyline. The filming-location archive identifies 岩井海岸 in Minamiboso as the beach where 桜咲学園 faces 桃郷学院, while the episode’s production credits separately list nearby Grand View Iwai for other scenes. Keeping those two places distinct avoids turning the whole episode into one hotel location. Iwai Beach remains a long, gently curving public shore in the Kushi area of Minamiboso. Current local visitor information describes it as a shallow, relatively calm beach and confirms that it continues to operate as a seasonal swimming area. This pin is a representative mapped point for Iwai Beach, not an invented mark for the exact 2007 confrontation or camera setup along a roughly two-kilometre shoreline. Visitors should follow seasonal swimming, barbecue, safety, and beach-management rules.
