Eastern coastal frontier
Located at the easternmost tip of Hokkaido, Nemuro is a coastal city where wild nature meets rich maritime heritage. Known for its dramatic capes like Nosappu and scenic views of the Northern Territories, it’s also a haven for birdwatchers, with rare species frequenting the wetlands and coastal areas. Nemuro’s fishing culture runs deep—visitors can savor some of the freshest local seafood, especially its prized saury (sanma). With rugged beauty and windswept charm, Nemuro offers a quiet, far-flung edge of Japan to explore.
