Japanese Cannon

A coastal defense gun left by Japanese forces in World War II. Its barrel still sits at a cave entrance, aimed over Sasanhaya Bay.

During World War II, Japanese forces built many coastal defenses on Rota. This gun remains intact in its cave gun emplacement, with its muzzle aimed at Sasanhaya Bay. Visitors can walk inside to see it up close. It is one of the easiest WWII sites on the island to reach. Admission is free, and a sign beside the road near Songsong Village marks the way.
