SUSAMI FISHING
Susami Town
Wakayama Prefecture
Susami Town
The sea of Susami is rich in fish species due to the influence of the Kuroshio Current,
and fishing can be enjoyed throughout the year.
The coast offers spectacular views of the Kareki-nada Sea,
and is designated as Yoshino-Kumano National Park and Nanki Kumano Geopark.
Jigging targets yellowfin tuna and amberjack,
while rock fishing from ferry-accessed islands yields large catches of grey mullet and striped beakfish.
Listen to advice from captains who know these waters inside and out,
and enjoy everything fishing has to offer.

Recreational Fishing Boats
Enjoy fishing from a boat. Some boats provide rental rods, making it easy for beginners to try. The variety of fish is abundant, and sometimes you’ll reel in a real trophy catch — an exciting experience for all skill levels.
