Suruga-ku offers a maritime experience distinct from the city center. The port area buzzes with fishing activity and ferry terminals. The highlight is Miho no Matsubara, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring a 7-kilometer stretch of black pine trees along the coast. On clear days, the pine-framed view of Mount Fuji across Suruga Bay is breathtaking. Visitors can walk or cycle the path, visit the Miho Shrine, and sample fresh seafood at local restaurants.
Don't miss
- Walk the Miho no Matsubara pine grove and photograph Mount Fuji over the bay.
- Visit Miho Shrine, a historic Shinto shrine nestled among the pines.
- Watch fishing boats at Shimizu Port and enjoy sushi at the nearby fish market.
