Enjoy crab in the winter, Tajima beef year-round, and local specialties prepared in the open kitchen of Dining SAN, a restaurant with high-beamed ceilings and views of pine trees and the sea. For a more intimate experience, dine at Ryotei Shoun, where you can enjoy your meal in a private room while watching the lights of fishing boats.
