  • We stayed at the accommodation to celebrate my father's 77th birthday. We used "Nami no Manimani," and the room was clean and spacious, and we were impressed by the open-air bath. The staff's very courteous service, excellent hospitality, and delicious meals made both my father and mother very happy. Fishing was easily accessible, and the children had a great time as well. We would definitely like to stay here again.

  • Autumn Special! Boat Fishing Experience for Ribbonfish!

    An autumn tradition! Boat fishing experience – Hairtail (cutlassfish) trip –

    Fun to catch, delicious to eat! Try Hairtail Fishing in the Seas of Awaji Island!

    On our September–November boat-fishing trips, we target the popular autumn catch: hairtail (cutlassfish). With its beautiful silver shine and powerful pull on the rod, it’s a true thrill unique to boat fishing—and the moment you land one is unforgettable. Best of all, the hairtail you catch will be served at your dinner that evening!
    Enjoy what you caught on the very same day—an exceptional experience that lets you savor not only the excitement of fishing, but also the bounty of Awaji Island’s sea.

    Our large 50-passenger boat is stable with minimal rocking and is equipped with a flush toilet. Even families with small children and first-time anglers can join with confidence. All fishing gear is provided by our Accommodation, so you can come empty-handed. Our staff will also be on board to support you and show you how to fish.
