Introduction
I almost hesitate to recommend Obama in Fukui — not because it’s bad, but because it’s
too good. Before the sun fully rises, the harbor is already alive: a low engine hum,
salt in the air, and that quiet “today might be the day” feeling.
Once you taste a fish you caught yourself — plated the very same day — ordinary meals back home will feel underwhelming.
This is a place where catch → deliver → savor happens in a single arc.
Not another checklist tour — it’s a day where you eat your own story.
Why Visit Fukui – Japan’s Hidden Gem
Why highlight Obama (Wakasa area) instead of the usual Tokyo–Kyoto–Osaka triangle?
Because this coast is where Japan feels quietly real.
- ✅ A calm seaside town where the port is part of everyday life — not a tourist stage set
- ✅ Wakasa Bay’s seasonal variety means “what you catch” changes beautifully with the time of year
- ✅ You get a rare pipeline: fish the Sea of Japan → move your catch → enjoy it the same day
Fishing Experience – Step by Step
This time, we introduce
Fukui’s renowned SUPER VIKING boat.
-
🛠️ Preparation – We provide all gear and life jackets.
Everything is arranged so beginners can feel at ease. -
🎣 Cast Your Line – Drop your line into the Sea of Japan
and wait for the thrill of your first fish taking the bait. -
✨ The Rod Tip Shakes – Feel the excitement as a fish takes the bait,
transmitted through the rod. -
💪 Reeling in Your Catch – Savor the moment when you subdue a fiercely
fighting fish on a single thin line. -
🍽️ From Sea to Table – Unlike typical tours, I bridge fishing and dining.
Your catch goes to partner restaurants.
✨ This isn’t just fishing.
It’s an experience where you can fully immerse yourself in discovery, learning, and Japanese tradition.
Eat Freshly Caught – From Sea to Table
This time, we introduce
the renowned restaurant Mikuni Inkyojo, where top chefs prepare your freshly caught fish with exceptional freshness. .
- 👨🍳 From Sea to Kitchen – The chef inspects the fish and prepares it as sashimi, grilled dishes, or soup.
- 🍣 Japan-Style: From Sea to Table – Savor the freshest seafood within hours of being caught.
- 🥢 Cultural Experience – Enjoy Japanese food culture in a cozy local setting.
✨ Unforgettable Memories – This is the magic: you feel the tug on the line in the afternoon…
and by evening, you’re tasting that very fish as a proper Japanese meal.
It’s not just “fresh” — it’s personal.
You remember the fight, the splash, the shout on deck — then you taste the moment again on a plate.
🗣️ Participant Feedback – Why This Experience is Chosen
🗣️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was nervous at the port because I couldn’t read the signs, but the support was so smooth I didn’t need to.
A gull screamed overhead, the boat cut across calm water, and then—my rod tip flicked twice. I froze… and the captain nodded like, “Now.”
When I finally landed my first fish, my hands were shaking in the best way. That night, seeing it served beautifully as sashimi felt unreal—like I’d earned a secret version of Japan.
— Lina (Germany)
🗣️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our teenagers usually live on their phones… but on this boat they became laser-focused.
They took turns calling out “Hit!” and laughing every time the reel screamed. On the drive to dinner they kept replaying the best moments like a sports highlight reel.
The restaurant brought out our fish and the kids went completely silent—then one whispered, “We actually did that.” It became the family story of the trip.
— Noah & Priya (Australia)
🗣️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve eaten at famous sushi counters in Japan, but this was different: the flavor had a timeline.
I remembered the exact second the fish hit, the way the line pulled, the small chaos on deck—and then the chef turned that memory into a meal.
The best part wasn’t luxury; it was connection. Sea on your jacket in the afternoon… warmth, rice, and perfectly cut sashimi at night. I felt Japan with my whole body.

Why Leave Booking & Language Support to Me
Most Japanese fishing boats accept reservations only in Japanese.
Partner restaurants typically do not list “cook-your-catch” courses on public menus.
That’s why I handle direct negotiations and arrangements for a seamless experience.
- ✅ I contact the captain directly in Japanese to secure your spot.
- ✅ Before departure, we will carefully explain the detailed procedures for the day, so you can set off without any worries.
- ✅ This isn't just booking. I know the captains, safe boats, and restaurants that genuinely welcome international guests.
- ✅ If weather cancels fishing, I'll suggest alternative sightseeing options in the area so you don't waste your day.
- ✅ And most importantly: I’m the only guide in Japan specializing in fishing + dining packages for foreign tourists.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I’ve traveled across Japan, but this was the only place where fishing truly continued into a real meal.
When I casually said, “I kind of want to stay nearby tonight,” they even helped me find a way to…
The gentle rhythm of the waves and a sky full of glittering stars — that night is still vivid, filed away as one of my most precious memories."
— Daniel (USA)
