Awaji Janohiru Outdoor Resort's Fishing Park is a facility that offers an offshore fishing experience. Here, there is an ocean fishing pond where you can catch all the big, high-end fish you can catch, such as red sea bream, yellowtail, and yellowtail.
You can also leave the cooking of your catch to us. We also offer cooking services such as scale removal, gutting, and 3-piece grating (for a fee). BBQ for after-fishing is also recommended.
| General Course / Raft Course | This course is perfect for those who are looking for big fish. We release mainly red sea bream, but also high-end fish such as striped horse mackerel, yellowtail, kampachi, yellowtail, and tiger puffer depending on the season. |
