A sea fishing park located at the western end of the Kanmon Strait, designed so that everyone from beginners to experts can enjoy fishing safely. Since it is a pier-style facility extending into the sea, you can target various fish throughout the seasons, such as horse mackerel, sea bream, and oval squid, even without a boat. Rental tackle and bait are also available, so you can stop by empty-handed, which is a great point. While feeling the dynamic tidal currents and sea breeze of the Kanmon Strait, the moment you catch a fish is exceptional. It is an ideal spot for family vacations or to casually touch Shimonoseki's rich marine culture during a trip.
