{{Nihongo|'''Shōnan'''|湘南}} is the name of a region along the coast of [[Sagami Bay]] in [[Kanagawa Prefecture]], central [[Japan]]. Centered on [[Sagami River]], about 60 kilometers southwest of [[Tokyo]], the Shōnan region stretches from [[Ninomiya, Kanagawa|Ninomiya]] in the west to [[Fujisawa, Kanagawa|Fujisawa]] in the east, including [[Ōiso, Kanagawa|Ōiso]], [[Hiratsuka, Kanagawa|Hiratsuka]], and [[Chigasaki, Kanagawa|Chigasaki]]. Because of the bay, the region benefits from a mild climate and long beaches covered with dark volcanic sand.
