Maizuru Port Tore Tore Center Roadside Rest Area

If you love seafood, this is the place to be at! Very reasonable prices for the quality you pay. I watched an episode of Japan Hour which featured this place in 2020 and have been wanting to visit ever since and boy was I glad and excited when I stepped foot into it today on the 24th day of November 2023!

I spent a total of 7500 yen for the king crab and assorted seafood which had prawns, scallop, octopus, squid and puffer fish. Really enjoyed the food and the stall holders were all very friendly and made effort to communicate with non Japanese speaking tourists.

A fun stop if you like seafood (you'd be in the wrong country if you hated it actually lol).

A large seafood market, with various stalls selling a variety of seafood cuisines ranging from skewers to rice bowls.

Prices here seem decent (compared to where I'm from), where fresh seafood 🦞 🍢 can cost an arm and leg. Quality is far superior, and unlike seafood markets in other countries, sellers aren't as aggressive or hustle as hard. Neither do they slip in slippery tricks to swindle customers, which I truly appreciate. The place is clean and does not smell bad, which easily adds to the enjoyable ambience. Sellers are aware most people here are out of towners, and spend a fair bit of effort communicating prices and fares to non-Japanese. Quite a few locals eat here too, so it can't be that much of a tourist trap.

Overall, a great place to easily spend an hour just eating and browsing.

A great local fish market, also open to tourists. I got huge oyster and cerntfish there, both were fresh, good, and cheap. Might be better to visit in the morning, but it still fun to walk around afternoon. The restaurant inside was okay. I recommend to see around the fishshops and ask to cook, then snack whatever catches your eyes.

U must come here, if u like tasty/cheap seafood !

Fresh seafood paradise! I got a rare fish nodoguro sashimi and the taste was unlike any other fish. Delicious.

There are two large fish markets in the city. Toretore Center is accommodating tourists visiting in the city located in the north-west part of the city neat the sea. Toretore ( Freshly caught ) Center is combined with a road station of Maizuru so you can have all other kind of shopping done in here. Kanewa is more like serving to the locals by offering at the wholesale prices. This one is located in the south part of West Maizuru along Route 74. You are likely to get a great deal in this place.
