Many assume that the auctions held at big-city markets like Toyosu (prev Tsukiji) in Tokyo are the heart of Japan's seafood trade, but this is actually the second time the giant tuna have been sold to market! The true heart of the action actually occurs a day earlier at Shiogama City Fish Market, the home of the largest catch of fresh tuna in all of Japan.Experience the action for yourself with this rare chance to view the auction up-close from the market floor itself, guided by a local tuna wholesaler.This area is usually completely off-limits to the public (who can view from the closed-off gallery)-only on this tour will you gain special permission to enter the market as if you were a local wholesaler yourself! The auction is also famous for being the fastest in Japan, with the action over and done with in around 30 minutes! Watch in awe as the pack of wholesalers moves down the lines and lines of giant tuna at a crazy pace, calling out unintelligible prices and bids as they go. After the auction, retreat to the onsite seafood restaurant where you'll have the chance to carve-up one of the massive tuna bought at the same auction.Use the fresh sashimi to make your own nigiri-sushi and devour it for breakfast, alon

Matsushima Bay is famous for its picturesque views of tiny islands dotted across calm blue waters, but many do not realise that the group of larger islands-the Urato Islands-are actually home to many of Shiogama City's townspeople, including local fishermen and oyster farmers. The waters of Matsushima Bay are some of the worlds most fertile for cultivating oysters.So fertile, in fact, that many of Japan's (and even overseas) oyster farms source their oyster 'seeds' from these very waters.In many ways, Matsushima Bay and the Urato Islands are the birthplace of the oysters that end up on our plates all around the world.On this tour, you can experience the life of an oyster farmer by jumping aboard a local fishing boat and watching the harvest process right in front of your eyes! You'll also have the chance to try some huge, juicy oysters straight from the water-they don't get much fresher than this !! Take the rest of the harvest back to shore and enjoy a seafood BBQ as you take in views over the water.Before and after your oyster experience you'll also have time to explore the island itself, learning more about the history and lifestyle of the people who live there and discovering hidden views of one.
