Himi Fishing Harbor Off-Market: Himi Banya-gai (氷見漁港場外市場 ひみ番屋街)

Flow of the course

About this spot

An off-market facility standing right next to Himi Fishing Harbor, featuring buildings designed to evoke traditional fishermen's huts (banya), lined with fresh fish shops, seafood rice bowls, sushi restaurants, and Himi udon eateries. The sight of fresh morning catch from Toyama Bay displayed in shop windows is delightful, and picking small amounts from various stalls to eat while walking is irresistible for food lovers. Since it gets crowded around lunch time, an early seafood lunch is recommended. The grounds also offer free foot baths where you can relax after your meal.

Tips

Fresh fish and dried fish products are most abundant in the morning. Visiting several small shops in succession allows you to taste a variety of options. Some shops accept cash only, so bring cash. Free parking is available and spacious, but expect congestion around midday on weekends.

Best time to visit

Allow approximately 2 hours 15 minutes. The selection is most abundant in the morning, and if you start eating before lunchtime, seating is easier to find.
