鳥羽市

鳥羽港は、もとは漁船の安全港として栄え、歴史的には水軍の将、九鬼嘉隆(1542-1600)の艦隊の拠点として有名です。今日、鳥羽はおそらく真珠産業でもっともよく知られています。実は、真珠の養殖技術はこの場所で初めて確立されました。険しい海岸線では漁業も盛んで、近代的な漁船と海女(女性の素潜り漁師)が、多種多様な魚や貝類、甲殻類、食用の海藻を収穫しています。



鳥羽市は伊勢志摩国立公園内に位置しています。多くの場所で水泳が許可されていますが、鳥羽の海から許可なく海の生物を採取することは固く禁じられているので注意してください。


Toba City

The port of Toba originally flourished as a safe harbor for fishing boats, and is historically famed as the base of the fleet of naval commander Kuki Yoshitaka (1542–1600). Today, Toba is perhaps best known for its pearl industry, and is in fact the place where the art of culturing pearls was first perfected. The rugged coastline also supports a thriving fishing industry, with modern vessels and ama female divers harvesting a wide variety of fish, shellfish, crustaceans, and edible seaweed.


Toba is situated inside Ise-Shima National Park. Please note that while swimming is permitted in many places, taking any sea life from Toba’s waters without a permit is strictly forbidden.
