Kintetsu Department Store Wakayama (近鉄百貨店 和歌山店)

Flow of the course

About this spot

A department store adjoining JR Wakayama Station (JR和歌山駅), with a restaurant floor and a food hall. Even when children's tastes differ, there are plenty of choices, so it is an easy lunch spot for the whole family to agree on. The air conditioning also makes it just the right place to cool down after walking outside. Ahead of the afternoon water play, you can also pick up towels, drinks, swim diapers, and anything else you need here. There is a baby care room, which is a help for families with infants.

Tips

Restaurants get crowded around noon on weekends and holidays, so arriving in the late 11 o'clock hour or just before 1 p.m. makes it easier to get a table. Business hours differ by floor, so check the official website in advance. To match the 1 p.m. pool opening, starting to move by around 12:50 p.m. gives you just the right timing.

Best time to visit

About 45 minutes. Arriving before noon is more comfortable if you want to avoid crowds
