Shirahama Seafood Market "Toretore" in Waka Shirahama is the largest seafood market in Western Japan, where fresh seafood from Shirahama is gathered. A tuna cutting show is held here two to three times a day (11:00-14:00) (please understand that the tuna cutting show may be canceled due to circumstances). A huge tuna can be cut up with just one knife. The cutting was completed neatly in an instant. During the performance, the young master paid equal attention to technique and entertainment, sometimes letting out uncontrollable exclamations of admiration. These are things you won't see very often anywhere else. The tourist fish market operated in a complex not only offers fresh seafood, but also a wide selection of souvenirs and processed products that you can buy and enjoy at home, making it an essential tourist market for any trip to Shirahama, Wakayama Prefecture.
