この島は臨海浦に浮かぶ南北130m、東西35m、高さ25mの小島（正式名称は高嶋）です。島全体が北側の番所の崎から続く比較的新しい礫岩でできており、中央部には、海食洞門がぽっかりとあいています。夕日が海食洞門に重なる夕景には風情があります。
This island is a small island (official name is Takashima) that floats in Rinkaiura, 130m north-south, 35m east-west, and 25m high. The entire island is made of relatively new conglomerate that continues from Banshozaki on the north side, and the sea cave gate is open in the center. The evening view where the setting sun overlaps the sea cave gate has a taste.

うえもり う Engetsuto (meaning ‘round-moon island’) is just off the coast of Shi-rahama. The island has a 9-metre-wide hole, through which the setting sun aligns perfectly during the spring and autumn equinoxes.
It was once part of a chain of islands, but continued erosion has left only the islet we see today.

波の侵食でできた平らな海底（波食台）が隆起して海岸段丘となった地形です。陸側の駐車場下に段丘礫層が見られます。田辺層群上部層の砂岩層では、浅海でできた地層特有の堆積構造や生痕化石が観察できます。千畳敷近くの海食洞は、ユビナガコウモリの近畿地方唯一の繁殖洞となっています。
It is a terrain where the flat seabed (wave-cutting platform) created by wave erosion rises and becomes a marine terrace. The terraced gravel layer can be seen under the parking lot on the land side. In the sandstone layer in the upper part of the Tanabe Group, sedimentary structures and trace fossils peculiar to the shallow sea can be observed. The sea cave near Senjojiki is the only breeding cave in the Kinki region for bent-wing bats(ユビナガコウモリ（Miniopterus fuliginosus）).

滝の拝 Takinohai
(日本語)
この穴だらけの奇妙な岩は「滝の拝」と呼ばれています。この岩は約 1800万年前に海底に堆積した砂と泥からできています。これらの無数 の穴は「ポットホール」と呼ばれ、水流で川底の石が回転して河床に穴 を開けたものです。
(このような穴ができるには岩が十分硬くなることが必要ですが、およそ1400万年前に発生したマグマの活動がその熱源だ といわれています。)
夏にはハゼの一種のボウズハゼが餌を求めて、この滝を登るのが見られます。吸盤が発達しているためです。（ボウズハゼの映像を見せる）
This strange rock full of holes is called "takinohai". This rock is made up of sand and mud deposited on the seafloor about 18 million years ago. These myriad holes are called "potholes" and are the rotation of stones at the bottom of the river that make holes in the riverbed.
(The rock needs to be hard enough to make such a hole, but the magma activity that occurred about 14 million years ago is said to be the heat source.)
In the summer, a kind of goby, Sicyopterus japonicus, can be seen climbing this waterfall in search of food. This is because the suckers are well developed. (Show the image of ボウズハゼ)

「古座川弧状岩脈」の流紋岩質火砕岩でできた巨大な岩壁です。約1400万年前、「熊野カルデラ」形成に伴い流紋岩質マグマが地表へ噴出する際の通路として、延長20ｋｍ以上にわたる「古座川弧状岩脈」が形成されました。この岩壁には、一枚岩の守り犬の民話があり、毎年、4月と8月には巨大な守り犬の影が出現します。
It is a huge rock wall made of rhyolite pyroclastic rock of "Kozagawa arcuate dike". Approximately 14 million years ago, with the formation of the "Kumano Caldera", the "Kozagawa arc-shaped dike" with a length of 20 km or more was formed as a passage for rhyolitic magma to erupt to the surface of the earth. There is a monolithic guardian dog folk tale on this rock wall, and a huge guardian dog shadow appears every April and August.

【一枚岩】こうやって文字にすると自信がありません。 でも何となく通じると思います。 これは山ですか？岩ですか？ 一枚岩と呼ばれる日本で一番大きな岩です。 日本のエアーズロックとも呼ばれています。 実は今から1400万年前この地方はマグマの活動が活発でした。 マグマが地上に吹き出す時の通り道の壁の一部が残った物です。 Is this a mountain, or a rock? It is the largest rock in Japan called Ichimai-iwa rock ,a monolith. Also known as Ayers Rock in Japan. In fact, this area was active by active magma 14millon years ago. This rock is a part of the wall of the path when the magma blows out.

「古座川弧状岩脈」の流紋岩質火砕岩が風化し、虫喰い状のタフォニを形成したものです。風化の原因は表面から水が蒸発する過程で、石膏などの微結晶の成長によって岩盤表面が剥がれ落ちて形成されると考えられます。また、耳の病気にご利益があるという信仰もあります。日本の地質百選『古座川弧状岩脈』の主要景観のひとつです。
The rhyolite pyroclastic rocks of the "Ichimai-iwa arcuate dike" are weathered to form insect-eating tafoni. It is thought that the cause of weathering is the process of water evaporation from the surface, and the rock surface is peeled off and formed by the growth of microcrystals such as gypsum. There is also a belief that there is a benefit to ear diseases. It is one of the main landscapes of "Koza River Arc-shaped Dike", one of the 100 best geological sites in Japan.

新宮藩主水野氏の居城跡です。マグマからできた流紋岩の山上に築城されています。城の石垣にも流紋岩(花崗斑岩)が用いられているほか、大手門付近は流紋岩(花崗斑岩)の節理を活かして防御しやすく進入路が築かれています。熊野川に面し、川と海の交通の要衝に建てられ、川沿いには炭納屋跡があります。
It is the ruins of the castle of Mr. Mizuno, the lord of the Shingu feudal lord. It is built on a mountain of rhyolite made of magma. Rhyolite (granodiorite) is also used for the stone walls of the castle, and an approach road is built near Otemon, which is easy to defend by utilizing the joints of rhyolite (granodiorite). Facing the Kumano River, it is built at the center of river and sea transportation, and there is a charcoal barn along the river.

The oldest Ryujin accretionary prism is distributed in Nanki Kumano Geopark. The hydrothermal alteration associated with magma activity hardened the rocks of the Ryujin accretionary prism, which became one of the factors that formed the canyon.

The Phoenix Fold Those folded rocks consist of sandstones or mudstones. As you know, they are formed by sands and muds that flowed form a river mouth to deep sea ground and piled up with taking long-long times to be firm, and finally become rocks. Those rocks are called sedimentary rocks and they are normally flat unless they are having something strong pressure. This Phoenix Fold shows us unusual shape. Why? Because they had enormous pressure by submarine volcanic activity and crustal activity, before they have been firm in the deep sea and they forced to bend like present shapes. It is said that a incident occured about 30 million years ago. This bed has gradually lifted up by the tectonic movement and come up to the surface. This site is very famous for us to observe beautiful shape of the fold. Please imagine how the earth has made dynamic activity, seeing this Phoenix Fold.

Hello, welcome to our Nanki-Kumano Geopark.
My name is Jimbo Keishi. I am very glad to have a chance to guide you today.
Please call me Keishi.
Today, we are going to visit one of would-famous geosite Phenix Fold by boat.
Before starting our tour, I would like to explain key points because engine noise would disturb
my words.
Phenix Fold has such curious figure as this photo shows. Foe what made such a figure?
As you know, the earth surface covered 10 or more plates. At the point of about 80km off the
coast, two plates, one is continental plate, and the other is sea plate, conflicts under deep
seabed.
Please look this figure and animation. At the result of very longstanding conflict, the sand and
mud deposit on the deep seabed had been run upon continent and folded. That is the reason
why Phenix Fold was made.
The name Phenix is come from near place.
Well, let's start our tour. Thank you.
高池の虫喰岩 Mushikui-Iwa Rock

蜂の巣のような不思議なかたちの岩ですね。地元では虫が食べたような岩、虫喰岩と呼んでいます。何がこんなかたちにしたのでしょうね? ハチでしょうか?魔物でしょうか?
この岩は火成岩の一種で、およそ1400万年前に生じた巨大カルデラ(熊野カルデラ)の南のヘリの大きな岩壁の一部なのです。この岸壁は東西約20kmあり世界最大級の岩脈といわれています。熊野カルデラの火山灰によって、世界の気温は10度も下がったといわれています。岩脈の端に、あとから行く一枚岩があります。
岩の上の方を見てください。小屋のようなものが見えますが、 人の住居ではなく、今から200年近く前にここを訪れた修験者が人々の幸せを願って木の仏像を納めた小屋です。今は仏像は岩の下に移されています。

Look! What a fantastic honeycomb rock ! People call this “worm-eaten rock”. What made such a fantastic shape ? Bees or monsters?
This rock is a kind of igneous rock, and a part of long wall of huge caldera (Kumano-caldera) that appeared about 14 million years ago.
This wall is said to be the largest rock dike in the world. It is said the volcanic ash from Kumano- caldera would lower world temperature about 10 degrees centigurade.
We will visit the famous rock Ichimai-Iwa Monolith later. It located at the west end of the dike.
Please look up this rock, you would find something like a hut. That is not a hut for human residence but for buddha statues.
They were made by a visiting yamabushi(ascetic trainer) praying for people's happiness about 200 years ago. Now, the buddha statues were moved on the ground, so we can see them.
付加体 (現地研修会より)
下にスライドします。 深海で作られた地層が陸地を作ります。
大陸プレートと海洋プレートの移動により、さまざまな砂と堆積物が押し合わされ、紀伊半島を構成する3つの陸塊の1つを形成しました。 これは付加体と呼ばれます。
水は山に落ち、地面に吸収されます。 雨水は地面から湧き出て、山を蛇行して新しい川を形成します。 これらの川は堆積物を運び、堆積してデルタを形成します。
付加体
Sliding down. Land made from deep sea. Made from Shallow sea
Because of the shifting of the continental and oceanic plates, various sand and sediments were pushed together, forming one of the three land masses that make up the Kii peninsula. This is called an Accretionary Prism.
Water falls in the mountains and is absorbed into the ground. The rainwater wells up from the ground, and snakes down the mountain, forming new rivers. These rivers carry sediments, which accumulate to form deltas.
