Miura, Coastal city in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan
Located at the southern end of the Miura Peninsula, the city stretches over 32 square kilometers with the Pacific Ocean surrounding it on three sides.
The area was controlled by the Miura clan during the late Heian period until their defeat by the Hojo clan in the Sengoku period.
The Misaki fishing port serves as a central hub for tuna trade, with early morning auctions drawing buyers and sellers for fresh seafood transactions.
Visitors can reach Miura from Tokyo via the Keikyu Line to Miurakaigan Station, with local buses connecting to main attractions and beaches.
The Misaki Fisheries High School operates two training vessels, including an ocean-going tuna fishing ship named Shonan Maru for practical education.
