Banner for the page about eating raw tuna in Nachikatsuura

When you think of the taste of Nachikatsuura-cho it has to be tuna.
Katsuura Fishing Port boasts the highest landings of fresh tuna (tuna that has never been frozen) in Japan, using the longline fishing method.
The fresh tuna we purchase from Katsuura Fishing Port is fresh and has never been frozen, as it is caught and landed only a short time later. Therefore, unlike thawed tuna, it has a chewy texture and allows you to enjoy the original flavor of the tuna.

Fresh seafood caught in the Kumano Nada Sea.
A gift from the land nurtured in the fertile soil of Kumano.
Enjoy a luxurious banquet using carefully selected seasonal ingredients unique to Kumano, with the chef's skill bringing out the natural flavors of the ingredients.
