🗺️ Shinminato Fisherman's Market新湊きっときと市場

The Shinminato Fisherman's Market is located at the Shinminato Fisherman's Wharf and is a seafood market that gathers fresh seafood from Toyama Bay. It features a grilling area where fresh seafood is cooked on the spot, as well as dining spaces like restaurants. Visitors can enjoy seasonal fresh fish sashimi, seafood bowls, and set meals at great prices. The market also offers famous Toyama specialties such as "Masuzushi" (trout sushi), "Hotaruika Okizuke" (firefly squid pickled), dried fish, and fish cakes. Throughout the year, various seafood, local products, and food-related events are held. Auctions of the day's catch can be observed daily at 12:30 PM, except on Wednesdays and Sundays. Toyama Bay is renowned for its rich seafood and is even referred to as a "natural fish tank." The white shrimp, known as the "jewel of Toyama Bay" for its pale pink color and beautiful luster, and the live, jumping yellowtail delivered directly to the wharf on ice, along with the crunchy texture and delicious innards of the firefly squid, are just some of the seasonal fresh seafood caught throughout the year.

If you want to visit the fish auction at noon, you need to make a reservation by phone in advance. There is a sightseeing regular route bus called "Toyama Burikani Bus" that connects Toyama Station to food attractions like Shinminato Fisherman's Market.
