Sanagōchi (佐那河内村, Sanagōchi-son) is a village located in Myōdō District, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan.

As of 2003, the village has an estimated population of 2,862 and a density of 67.66 persons per km². The total area is 42.30 km². The area is known for its spelunking caves.

A famous local product is momo ichigo (ももいちご, 桃苺, literally "peach strawberry"), a type of strawberry which is renowned for its juiciness (hence ) retails for very high prices – a large strawberry can sell for upwards of 500 yen (over $6 at 2011 exchange rates).[1] Various sweets are made using it, such as chocolate and mochi-covered strawberries, and Häagen-Dazs Japan sells Momo Ichigo ice cream.
