Japan’s frozen-tuna capital, and the single best food stop within walking distance of the gangway. Two buildings — Ichiba-kan (market stalls, gifts) and Maguro-kan (restaurants). Go before 11:30 or after 13:30 to dodge the local lunch rush.
Cruise tip: on Wednesdays the market building rests — shift your tuna plan to Sushi Yokocho at Dream Plaza.
From Hinode Pier: 8 min walk. Tap the map to open live directions on your phone.
Be back on board at least 60 minutes before departure. Every itinerary on this site is designed around your all-aboard time, not around opening hours.
Mt. Fuji is clearly visible roughly 3–4 days out of 10, best in early morning. Check the official live camera before you commit to a view-based plan — and see our Plan B.
Arrival berths and times are published by the Shimizu Port Passenger Ship Committee. Note: if your ship docks at Okitsu Pier, walking out is not permitted — plan transport ahead.
