Outakujina Shrine, dedicated to the sea kami Outakujin, is a historic Shinto shrine located in Koyurushi Village, Rumoi Subprefecture, Hokkaido. The shrine's architecture reflects traditional Japanese design, with a main hall and several smaller shrines. Founded during the Heian period (794-1185 CE), the shrine has been rebuilt several times due to natural disasters, most recently after the 2018 earthquake.
