Tottori Port Kaisen Ichiba Karo-ichi (鳥取港海鮮市場かろいち)

Flow of the course

About this spot

Located right beside Tottori Port (Karo Port), this seafood market is lined with fishmongers, souvenir shops, and eateries offering freshly landed fish and seafood. Your main attraction: generously portioned seafood bowls featuring prime cuts delivered straight from the harbor. Seasonal delicacies color the bowl—white squid and roe shrimp in summer, matsuba crab in winter—all showcasing the Sea of Japan's bounty. After lunch, stroll through the market, enjoying the vendors' energetic calls as you browse dried goods and seafood products—perfect for finding travel souvenirs. Nearby Jiba-san Plaza Wattai (地場産プラザわったいな) gathers local agricultural products and specialties. Exploring both venues gives you a complete sense of Tottori's culinary wealth.
