Why we send people here

Tsugaru Strait fish — the tuna Tokyo bids fortunes for — served across a counter with a translator smoothing every course. Book before you sail; seats are few.

Before you count on it
  • Book it before you sail. There is no tour desk at the pier and walk-up places are not a thing here.
  • No single published ride covers this one. Budget for a taxi both ways, or fold it into a guided day.
