Tobishima, Coastal village in Ama District, Japan
Tobishima is a village in Aichi Prefecture located within Ama District along the shore of Ise Bay. The terrain sits at sea level and consists mostly of flat agricultural land extending toward the waterfront.
The area emerged through land reclamation projects undertaken by the Tokugawa shogunate that transformed parts of Ise Bay into farmable ground. The official establishment as a municipality took place in October 1889 during the Meiji era.
Tobishima remains a working agricultural and fishing community where daily routines revolve around the fields and the shoreline. The connection with Rio Vista in California brings occasional exchange visits and shared events that link both communities across the Pacific.
The village is accessible via the Isewangan Expressway and National Routes 23 and 302, with no passenger train service available. Road connections lead toward Nagoya to the east and to other municipalities across the Aichi region.
The Nishi-Nagoya Thermal Power Station along the bay shore contributes significantly to the local budget and shapes the skyline of the village. The facility stands on reclaimed land that was once part of the open bay.
