Leisurely enjoy the sight of fishing boats and Ishikari Bay scenery at the morning harbor
About this spot
A small fishing port used by local fishermen, located near Zenibako Seaside Beach. In the morning hours, you can see fishing boats coming and going from the port, which becomes a valuable opportunity for children to experience maritime work. The quiet harbor scenery overlooking Ishikari Bay is perfect for a peaceful morning away from urban hustle and bustle. Feel the scent of salt and the sound of waves as you prepare for the day ahead. Though there are no special facilities, simply walking along the waterfront is a pleasant experience.
