Rainy Days = Beautiful Fog!
The rainy season has started particularly early in Iya and all of Shikoku this year, about 3 or 4 weeks earlier than normal, and is the earliest start to the rainy season in the history of officially taking statistics!
Hopefully the early start means it will be finished all that much sooner, allowing the later half of June and early July (which would normally be wet) to therefore be clear.
But one nice thing about the rainy season is that it allows for some beautiful fog formations throughout the Iya Valley, so if you do visit at this time, its always wonderful to see the drifting clouds upon the lush green landscape!
