三崎鱼市场

Misaki Fish Market is a wholesale seafood market in Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, on the Miura Peninsula. The market developed with Misaki Port, a major Kanto fishing port with centuries of commercial fishing history. It serves as a distribution hub for fresh seafood from Sagami Bay, Tokyo Bay, and more distant grounds. Operating primarily as a wholesale facility for restaurants, fishmongers, and dealers, portions remain accessible to the public. The fishing industry's importance to Miura City makes the market central to local economy.

The market handles diverse catches as a major seafood distribution point. Misaki Port's fleet brings tuna, bonito, mackerel, sardines, squid, and seasonal varieties for distribution to Tokyo and beyond. The market connects fishing communities with urban consumers through traditional wholesale practices. Early morning tuna auctions demonstrate traditional processes where buyers inspect and bid on large fish. Tokyo proximity makes it accessible for observing working fish market operations. Seafood sold reflects seasonal catches and ocean conditions.

Visitors observe operations during early morning hours when activity peaks. Viewing tuna auctions and wholesale floors requires arriving very early, typically before dawn, as main activities conclude by mid-morning. Retail sections and affiliated shops sell fresh seafood, processed products, and related goods. Restaurants and eateries nearby serve fresh seafood meals including kaisendon (seafood rice bowls), sashimi sets, and grilled fish.

Misaki Fish Market is accessible via the Keikyu Main Line to Misakiguchi Station, approximately 90 minutes from Shinagawa Station. From the station, the market is 5 to 10 minutes by bus or taxi to the port area. Lengthy travel time means dedicated trip planning. The market pairs with Miura Peninsula sites including Jogashima Island, coastal scenery, Kannonzaki lighthouse, and Kurihama beaches. Admission to public areas is free, though wholesale access may be restricted.
