Tsunami evacuation zones

Tsunami evacuation zones are designated areas identified as at risk of flooding or damage from a tsunami wave. These zones are based on historical data, coastal geography, and wave simulations, indicating how far inland or higher ground the tsunami could reach. In the event of a tsunami warning, residents are advised to move quickly to higher ground or inland areas outside these zones. Clear signage and maps help residents and visitors recognize evacuation routes, ensuring safety by avoiding low-lying coastal areas during such emergencies.
