Nakaminato Fish Market (Osakana Ichiba) is a harbour-side market of seafood shops and restaurants in Hitachinaka, Ibaraki. Visitors find it much busier than expected, mostly with domestic tourists. Google Maps shows no fixed hours for it, so check Google Maps before you go.
What to expect
Fresh seafood and restaurants in one place. Reviewers who arrive late in the afternoon report that many shops have already closed, so go earlier in the day.
