2025 Katsuura Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

I went to Ochanoma Guesthouse in Kenkatsuura, Chiba! It's about a 15-minute walk from Kazusa-Okitsu Station, and the sea stretches out in front of you! It's a renovated old house, so it feels like grandma's house. It's great value for money, with a one-night stay and two meals for under 5,000 yen! For dinner, we had bonito and tuna caught in Katsuura. #Chiba #Katsuura #ValueHotel #QuintessaCampaign

At "Kakui" in Katsuura, I had a set meal of boiled golden-eyed snapper and local fish sashimi. If I go to Katsuura, I definitely want to visit this restaurant again. The menu is rich, but many items sell out depending on the supply situation and time of day, so it's best to come with the intention of deciding on the menu on the spot. Free parking is available, and it's convenient that you can use electronic money. Address: 17 Kushihama, Katsuura City, Chiba Prefecture Atmosphere/Facilities: Relax in a box seat with a view of the sea Recommended points: Enjoy fisherman's cuisine made with fresh seafood caught in Katsuura. The main course and the small bowl of salted fish are excellent. Average price: 1,500 to 2,500 yen Budget per person: Lunch is around 2,000 yen Rating: ★★★ (If you want to relax, weekdays are recommended!) #QuintessaCampaign #Gourmet #Katsuura

If you go down the spiral staircase to a depth of 8m, you will come to an observation area where you can see the ocean in 360 degrees. You can enjoy the fish in a slightly different way than you would at an aquarium. ■Location 174 Yoshio, Katsuura, Chiba Prefecture ■Opening hours 9:00-17:00 (reception until 16:30) ■Admission fee Adults 980 yen *Discounts available depending on the transparency of the ocean #QuintessaCampaign #Katsuura #Chiba

Moriya Coast, a 10-minute walk from Kazusa-Okitsu Station on the JR Sotobo Line, is famous for its crystal clear water. There is also a parking lot, so you can go by car. On Oshima Island offshore, there is a red torii gate, which is also the symbol of Moriya Coast. You can walk across to Oshima Island at low tide during spring tides, so it might be a good idea to go at that time! There are many beaches with calm waves in the surrounding area, such as Ubara Coast and Okitsu Coast, so why not try looking for a spot that suits your taste? #Chiba #Seaside #Seasideview #Beach #Swimmingbeach

It takes about an hour to hike around the 2,300m hiking trail At the entrance to the hiking trail, there is the long-established Ubara Ryokan, which has been in business for over 100 years. There is a dimly lit hand-carved tunnel just inside the entrance. After passing through one, another one appears... it's a little scary... After passing through there, you go through a tunnel of trees like a jungle. It makes you feel like you're an explorer... #Chiba #Katsuura #Ubara Utopia #Bell #Beautiful view spot #Photogenic spot #Spring 0 yen trip #Hiking #Exploration #Tunnel

Although the Kumano Kodo Trail is steep, it was snowing along the way. After walking through the snow, you will see spring scenery. It's like walking into a mountain and passing through four seasons. We chose to stay in Nachikatsuura that day. It is a small fishing village with the freshest tuna. The local cats are all fat. I guess the cats’ stomachs are full of baby fish😝

#0 Yen Trip November Katsuura City faces the Pacific Ocean in the southern part of the Boso Peninsula. We went on an overnight trip in search of beautiful sea and delicious seafood. In the evening, we enjoyed plenty of seafood at Kappo Nakamura. The sashimi was fatty and melted in the mouth. And very plump. In the morning, we had a seafood bowl at the famous Katsuura Asaichi. It was a special price, so I highly recommend it!!
