[Please send me a message first so we can secure the experience on requested day.]

After our walk and taking in all the tempting sights and smells of local food, it’s time to sit down and enjoy an authentic Japanese meal featuring fresh seafood (or meat) and seasonal vegetables from Miura.
Misaki Port
In the afternoon, we will take the local bus and move towards Misaki Port area, where we will walk around the local farmer's market, kainan Shrine, shopping street (time to eat a gelato? or have a miura craft beer?)

Hello travelers!
My name is Carrie, and I’m thrilled to introduce myself and share my journey with you.
I'm a native Chinese speaker, fluent in both English and Japanese. I've been living in Japan for over a decade and now reside in the beautiful Miura Peninsula. Miura is a hidden gem for travelers seeking a peaceful getaway close to Tokyo, known for its broad beaches, rugged coastline, fresh tuna, and scenic farmland. I’d love to show you around and help you discover a different side of Japan—local, tranquil, and full of natural beauty.
I’ve also lived in Kamakura and am familiar with many areas across Kanagawa. If you’re interested in exploring beyond Miura, feel free to reach out! With my multilingual skills, deep understanding of Japanese culture, and hands-on experience, I’d love to help you create unique experiences and lasting memories as we explore Japan’s stunning landscapes together.
