- In a small Hokkaido fishing village, we'll start our tour at Yamashita Machine Shop, a local establishment founded in 1984. This essential business maintains and processes machinery used by fishermen, both on their boats and for scallop cultivation. Their expertise includes the "ear-hanging" method, where scallops are carefully drilled and tethered to ropes suspended in the sea. Join our knowledgeable guide for a tour of the factory and learn how they collaborate with fishermen to support the local economy.
