Tuna Farm Cruising Experience

(Feeding Experience / Harvest Observation: Tue & Fri)


Feed Giant Tuna & Cruise in Minami-Ise


Feed giant tuna up close—close enough to feel the splash.

Then cruise along the coast with a local fisherman, hearing real stories from life at sea.
This is not just sightseeing, but a rare glimpse into a life shaped by the ocean.

Join a local fisherman and board a working fishing boat to visit offshore tuna farming pens.
Experience feeding massive tuna up close, then enjoy a scenic cruise along the beautiful rias coastline of Minami-Ise.

Minami-Ise is a coastal town where mountains and ocean exist side by side, shaping a unique way of life.
Fishing here is more than an industry—it is a tradition passed down through generations.
This experience offers a rare opportunity to step into that authentic lifestyle.
