Kagoshima Fish Market
鹿児島市魚類市場
Est. 90Kagoshima, Kyushu
Overview
Bustling fish market with tuna auctions and market tours rivaling Tokyo's Tsukiji in variety and freshness.
Kagoshima's fish market on the waterfront below Kinko Bay operates as a working wholesale facility most mornings, and guided tours take small groups through the auction floor, the processing areas, and the vendor stalls where vendors sell directly to the public. The market handles Kagoshima's abundant local catch including flying fish, amberjack, and the sakurajima seabream raised in the clean bay waters. Morning tours start around 7am. Buy fish to cook yourself or eat fresh at the market restaurant attached to the facility.
