J-Drama Pilgrimage | SUMMER NUDE (2013) — 瀬戸浜海水浴場 / Asahi’s Episode-1 Night on the Beach

Episode 1 of Fuji TV’s 『SUMMER NUDE』, broadcast July 8, 2013, uses 瀬戸浜海水浴場 / Setohama Beach in Minamiboso for the beach where 三厨朝日 / Asahi Mikuriya sits until morning. The Nationwide Filming Location Guide identifies the Chikura shoreline directly for this scene. The location still functions as a public beach rather than a preserved television set. Chiba Prefecture’s current tourism site places Setohama Beach in Chikuracho Seto and describes its approximately 200-metre shore, while current 2026 visitor information confirms a supervised swimming season in summer. Outside the supervised period, official guidance warns against swimming. The coordinate is a beach-level public pin. It does not claim the exact patch of sand where the actor sat, the 2013 tide line, or a camera position. For pilgrims, the value is the same exposed coastal atmosphere that framed Asahi’s emotional isolation at the start of the series, while present-day sea conditions and local safety rules take priority over recreating the scene.
