An endoscope apparatus includes: an insertion portion to be inserted into a living body, an optical fiber that is inserted through the insertion portion and emits light from a light source, a fixing member that holds the optical fiber in the insertion portion in a state where the optical fiber is protruded in a distal end direction of the insertion portion, an actuator that causes the distal end of the optical fiber to swing, and a distal end optical system having an optical characteristic in which a focal point position of the light is behind a distal end of the insertion portion when the optical fiber protruded from the fixing member is shortened by a predetermined length.
