Fuel up on local cuisine and hunt for souvenirs
About this spot
Standing on the shore of Kumihama Bay (久美浜湾), Kumihama SANKAIKAN Roadside Station (道の駅くみはまSANKAIKAN) is a direct-sales market lined with locally caught seafood, fresh vegetables and souvenirs unique to Kyotango (京丹後). At the dining area inside you can taste dishes made with oysters raised in Kumihama Bay and other local ingredients, perfect for a solid meal before sea bathing. Because you can shop and eat at the same time, it is just the right rest spot for switching from morning sightseeing to afternoon swimming. Cold drinks and ice cream are also available, handy for stocking up against the heat.
