ABOUT
About this spot
Located in Wakayama Marina City, Kuroshio Market is a seafood market that recreates a lively Showa-era shopping street. The one thing you absolutely cannot miss here is the thrilling tuna cutting show held daily. Watching a giant tuna being deftly carved right before your eyes, then sold on the spot as sushi and rice bowls, is spectacular entertainment. Inside the market, fresh seafood and local specialties from all over the country line the shelves. At the especially popular Hama-yaki Barbecue corner, you can freely grill fish, shellfish, and meat you have just bought at the market on the terrace. Fresh seafood enjoyed in the sea breeze tastes exceptional. There are also luxurious seafood rice bowls, authentic sushi, and plenty of shopping for Wakayama souvenirs. Perfect for making family trip memories, or for grazing and dating with friends, this is a seafood paradise where you can spend the whole day.
