Tsunamis can happen in Japan along its Coastlines that are located around the Pacific Ocean, particularly along the Ring of Fire. They are often triggered by undersea earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions. Japan is one of the countries most at risk for tsunamis due to its location on multiple tectonic plate boundaries.
