・Be the Pro: The Art of Tsurushi-giri
Don’t just watch—grab a knife! Join the "Tsurushi-giri" (hook-cutting) ritual at the port. Under a master's guidance, you’ll feel the fish’s weight, catch the fresh monkfish liver (Ankimo), and learn to skin this deep-sea delicacy yourself.

・Ultimate Ocean-to-Table Feast
Cook "Dobujiru," a legendary fisherman’s hot pot made purely from the fish’s juices and rich liver miso. Enjoy a "head-to-tail" feast, savoring every part with local pairings you won't find in any city restaurant.

・Seamless Travel with Free Transfers
Skip the logistics. Our complimentary round-trip transfers ensure your journey to the North Ibaraki coast is as smooth as the premium monkfish liver you’ll taste.
