Located near Naminoue Shrine, this is a popular local spot for both recreation and sightseeing. Naminoue Beach has fine white sand and clear blue water. Despite being in the city, it still offers pleasant coastal scenery and is perfect for walking, playing in the water, or watching the sunset. Nearby Naminoue Umisora Park has walking paths, observation decks, and rest areas where you can look out over the blue sea and passing boats. The scenery is very charming. Visitors can enjoy the sea breeze and relax, then stop by Naminoue Shrine to experience Okinawa's natural beauty and cultural character.

Ine Bay Sightseeing Boat
This activity is located in the northern part of Kyoto on the Tango Peninsula, the boat takes about 25 minutes to cruise around Ine Bay. The bay is lined with funaya houses along the shore, offering a beautiful, quintessential Japanese landscape you can see from water.
Cruise leisurely through the calm waters of Ine Bay on a sightseeing boat, admiring the traditional funaya boathouses built along the shore up close and experiencing the fishing village's unique history, culture, and relaxed atmosphere. Seagulls and black-tailed gulls often fly alongside the boat, and passengers can buy food to feed them, adding some interactive fun to the trip.

Atsuta Houraiken Main Store
Founded in 1873 in front of Atsuta Jingu Shrine, this restaurant is the birthplace of "Hitsumabushi", Nagoya's famous eel dish. Hitsumabushi, which is a registered trademark of Atsuta Horaiiken, is a dish of broiled eel chopped into small pieces and served on a bed of rice in a container called an "o-hitsu".
Located in Nagoya, Atsuta Houraiken Main Store was founded in 1873 and is one of the city’s most iconic places to try hitsumabushi. The fresh eel is carefully grilled over charcoal, giving it crispy skin and tender meat. Its rich aroma pairs beautifully with the restaurant’s secret sauce, which has been passed down for generations without being overly sweet.
The highlight of hitsumabushi is enjoying it three ways: first on its own, then with toppings like green onions and wasabi, and finally with broth poured over it, ochazuke-style. Each preparation brings out a different flavor. -
