Interesting facts
1

The name 'Fishuuna' is a portmanteau derived from the Japanese words 'Fish', 'Shizuoka', and 'Port' (Minato).

2

The park is situated on a man-made landform specifically created to protect the Yaizu port area from high tide and storm surges.

3

It is positioned as one of the closest coastal vantage points in Shizuoka to view the entirety of the Izu Peninsula and the peak of Mt. Fuji simultaneously.

4

The promenade features integrated stone seating that utilizes the seawall structure as a natural amphitheater facing the water.

Overview

Fishuuna is a waterfront park located along the coast of Yaizu, Shizuoka, specifically designed to offer unobstructed views of Mt. Fuji across Suruga Bay. The park features a promenade along the seawall that connects directly to the Yaizu fishing port facilities. It serves as an observation point for maritime traffic entering and exiting the port. The site is constructed on a reinforced sea barrier, providing a direct interface between the urban coastline and the ocean. It is a public space maintained by Shizuoka Prefecture to promote coastal recreation.

Photo spot

The elevated viewing deck on the northern end of the promenade provides the clearest angle for framing Mt. Fuji behind the harbor entrance.

Insider tips

Check the local weather forecast specifically for visibility in the Suruga Bay area, as mist often obscures the mountain view.

Bring wind-resistant clothing, as the exposed coastal location experiences significant breezes year-round.

Combine a visit with a trip to the nearby Yaizu Sakana Center for fresh seafood after walking the promenade.

What to avoid

Do not climb or sit on the outer railings of the seawall, as the drop to the ocean side is steep and currents are strong.
