A pedestrian protection device includes a left airbag and a right airbag that are disposed in a vicinity of a rear end of a hood panel in a vehicle, and are arranged in parallel on vehicle width direction sides. The left airbag and the right airbag each include a cowl cover portion that is disposed following the vehicle width direction and covers an upper face side of a cowl. The cowl cover portions have end portion regions disposed coinciding with each other on up-down direction sides on end sides that are in proximity to each other. At least one of the end portion regions is configured in such a way that an internal pressure when inflation is completed is raised higher than that of a general region.
