Things to See and Do
Ise-Shima National Park feels like a living museum. Locals are proud of their unusual fishing methods, such as the ama divers, who help manage and preserve seaweed beds and other biological resources by observing strict rules relating to fishing methods and catch sizes. You can take tours to meet and interact with the ama divers. Sea kayaking among the islands of Ago Bay is a thrill, too.
