• Tanabe - Situated between the sea and the sacred mountains of Kumano, Kii-Tanabe is a town where everyday life and cuisine blend seamlessly. The port delivers fresh catches from Tanabe Bay—amberjack, squid, and sea bream—while the nearby hills provide plums, citrus, and mountain vegetables. This fusion of sea and land has created a cuisine that celebrates balance, freshness, and simplicity. Family-run izakaya line the backstreets, where locals gather to enjoy spring-water sake or crisp Voyager Brewing beers, a source of local pride. Grilled Kumano beef, homemade pickles, and freshly caught sashimi reflect the region’s abundant nature. During this experience, visitors will explore two local bars, each offering a unique perspective—one steeped in tradition, the other showcasing modern creativity. Amidst laughter and the scent of charcoal and citrus, visitors will feel embraced by a community that welcomes travelers as temporary locals.
