～Ama hut Hachiman Kamado～ Discover the local gastronomy and Ama culture at Hachiman Kamado.
"Ama culture has been around for 3,000 years." ■ Ama are female fishmongers who make their living by diving to catch abalone, sazae clam, seaweed, and other fish. Each reason has its strict fishing season that designates the size of shellfish that can be caught and more. Today, they continue to ensure they do not overfish or exhaust the sea life they catch. • Ama huts are spots for the Ama to prepare before going out to fish and to warm up by a fire after spending time in the sea and for resting in general. These places are essential for Ama fishing. • Enjoy a meal while listening to the tales of Ama who still actively fish. You can dance the local Osatsu Ondo with the Ama and wear their traditional attire. • After your meal, you can visit an authentic Ama hut (Kujirazaki) that is still in use today and learn more about fishing as an Ama and about the sea while enjoying coffee or tea with sweets. Enjoy the magnificent view of the fishing grounds in front of Kujirazaki while enjoying the sound of the waves.
