Kinko Bay is an enclosed bay surrounded by inlets, but yet it is deeper than 200 meters at some points. This provides abundant varieties of fishes. After all sorts of marine products caught in Kinko Bay and costal tunas are landed at the fish market, the market bustles with lively auctions. Special “Fish Market Tours” are organized every Saturday be-tween March and November by the youth group of the Kagoshima Hotel and Ryokan Association. Visitors can see and feel the real presence of the early morning auction and other daily activities at the fish market.
