Kastuura Morning Market

The market features 80 stalls offering fresh seafood, local produce, traditional pickles, Japanese sweets, and street food along two main streets in Katsuura.

Established in the Momoyama period during 1591, this market has maintained continuous operations for over four centuries in the coastal town of Katsuura.

Local farmers and fishermen directly sell their products, including fresh yellowtail, sardines, homemade miso, and seasonal vegetables from personal gardens.

The market operates daily except Wednesdays from 6:30 AM to 11:00 AM, alternating between Shimohoncho Street and Nakahoncho Street every fifteenth day of the month.

Nine active fishing ports supply the market with marine products, making Katsuura the second-largest fishing center in Chiba Prefecture.
