Chigasaki Beach in Kanagawa Prefecture will now be called 'Southern Beach Chigasaki', a name inspired by the pop group Southern All Stars, whose lead singer comes from Chigasaki. The group's songs feature references to landmarks along the beach. The beach will not only sport a new name but a new look thanks to local clean-up operations. The new image beach will open to swimmers on 26 June. Condoms currently reign supreme in Japan and are by far the most common method of birth control.
Condoms are easily available at convenience stores and in vending machines outside pharmacies.
The low-dose pills will be available by prescription only. Travellers should preferably still bring adequate contraceptive supplies with them.
