Harima Sea, Marine region in eastern Seto Inland Sea, Japan

The Harima Sea stretches across 2,500 square kilometers between Awaji Island, Shodoshima, and Shikoku, with an average depth of 40 meters.

The waterway established maritime connections between the Kinki area and the regions of Chugoku, Shikoku, and Kyushu throughout Japanese maritime development.

The waters support local fishing communities that supply fresh seafood to surrounding regions, particularly sea bream caught near the rocky reefs.

Multiple rivers feed into the Harima Sea, including the Kakogawa, Ichikawa, Yumesakigawa, Ibogawa, Chikusagawa, and Senba, maintaining the water ecosystem.

Sand lance populations in these waters contribute to the creation of Tsukudani, a regional dish where the fish is prepared with soy sauce and mirin.
