The fishing town Taiza holds a nostalgic atmosphere especially for Japanese people.
Crabs called 'Taiza-gani', famous throughout Japan, are caught right here. The port is about a 20 minute walk from the hotel. A stroll to see the livelihood of this town is recommended. Rental fishing rods are available (JPY 1,000 for 1). The fish you catch can even be fried at the hotel.
