I walked around the small but beautiful Aoshima Island which was surrounded by undulating rocks. The formation of undulating rocks surrounding the Nichinan Coast and Aoshima is known as the Devil's Washboard. This formation is the result of eons of erosion occurring to hydrothermal rocks formed in the ocean roughly seven million years ago, leaving only the harder sandstone layers which can be seen piled today like slabs.
