One of the "100
Most Scenic Spots" in Japan, Tsukumo Bay is
one of the bays located in the Noto Peninsula, jutting
out into the Sea of Japan on the reverse side of
the Pacific Ocean. A rias coastline with the highly
transparent water, Tskumo Bay looks as though there
are 99 inlets and Tsukumo, litereally meaning 99
in Japanese, is named after this curiously jagged
coastline. What characterizes this bay is a stereotypical
Japanese landscape in the old days of a bay with
pine trees in the background and the rustic Japanese
ways of life, which can still be seen vividly. The
preservation of the traditional rural life is attributable
to the fact that the Noto Peninsula is geographically
isolated from the rest of the mainland Japan. |

We recommend pampering
yourself with Tsukumo Bay's picturesque landscapes
by exploring the bay by glass-bottom boat for approximately
half an hour or fishing adjacent to the pier with
the depth of water at about 10 meters. We recommend
taking the fish you have caught to your ryokan -"Hyakurakuso,"
where they would happily prepare your dinner using
the freshest fish from the bay. Alternatively, you
could follow a footpath along the bay for a breathtaking
panorama of the bay. |
