Mikuni has a lot of facilities for families taking advantage of rich nature of seashore and mountains. Among them, Shibamasa World and Echizen Matsushima Aquarium are two major attractive spots you should visit. In Shibamasa World, you can play all day long in various facilities. In Echizen Matsushima Aquarium, you can enjoy performance by dolphins and penguins and children can enjoy observing small marine life by walking around the rocky shore right behind this aquarium. We are sure small children and a little older boys and girls will be greatly satisfied in these two attractive spots. Another feature of leisure facilities in Mikuni is that we have many parks located in marvelous natural environment where children can have unusual experiences by playing with various types of play equipment. These spots are also perfect for adults to stroll around. Moreover, it helps us a lot that these facilities do not cost much. This enables family with many children to enjoy for days in these facilities in Mikuni.

We recommend seniors to enjoy the relaxing course at an easy pace, enjoying the atmosphere of an old port town as well as “hot spring and souvenirs”, which are the real pleasure of your trip. First of all, we recommend you to visit a major temple and a shrine in Mikuni, that is, Takidanji Temple and Mikuni Shrine. After enjoying old and refined atmosphere of these places, let’s visit Demura area. In a limited old district only a few minutes’ walk can cover, you can see rows of old wooden houses with a refined atmosphere that give off scent of wood that reminds us of good old days. For lunch, please be sure to relish sushi and soba noodle at a restaurant in Mikuni that serves dishes with authentic taste of Japanese food. The ingredients being extremely fresh, sushi in Mikuni is much more delicious. The same holds true of soba noodle here. Please search good restaurants food connoisseurs recommend in “Oshokuji dokoro”. If you get tired with walking, stop by Your Port, a hot spring facility in Mikuni, and soak your body in a hot bathtub watching the beautiful sea. After that, please find your favorite souvenirs at Michino eki (Roadside Station) in Mikuni.

If you want to spend time in a relaxed manner with your precious person, we recommend a romantic place where you can enjoy beautiful sunset. Let’s wish good luck for both of you at Tojinbo Tower after visiting Kaihin (Seaside) Park where you feel comfortable breeze from the sea and from Oshima Island. Then, how about visiting Shoryukan which is beautifully painted in pure white? We recommend some classy restaurant for lunch that serves you fancy Italian dishes. Some people have a fixed image of Mikuni as a town of fishing industry. Recently, however, we have more and more sophisticated shops and restaurants with good reputation. When you want to choose the restaurant with refined atmosphere, search “Oshokuji dokoro” and find one. Kitamae Street is the most suitable area for dating because you can find stylish cafés and gelato shops there. When it gets dark, be sure to walk to Sunset Beach, and you will be overwhelmed by the beautiful sun sinking below the horizon.
