Umi no Eki Shioji

Located in Hinase-cho, Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, Umi no Eki Shioji is a barbecue facility directly operated by the Hinase Fisheries Cooperative. It sits across from the fresh fish market Gomi no Ichi. Because you can enjoy seafood landed by local fishermen right on the spot, it is widely used by both tourists and local residents.

Barbecue is available by reservation up to the day before. Each table is available for 90 minutes, and plans include charcoal, a grill net, tongs, and other essentials. You can enjoy charcoal-grilled seafood such as oysters, shrimp, clams, and turban shells purchased at Gomi no Ichi without bringing anything. While taking in the seaside aroma, you can savor the concentrated umami of fresh seafood. The lively crackling sound of the charcoal fire is part of the appeal as well.

The facility also has a Poplar convenience store, stocked with a wide selection of drinks such as juice, beer, and wine, as well as frozen ingredients for barbecue. Fresh local products from Hinase and nearby areas are also sold here. You will also find processed seafood products, handmade items by local residents, and many souvenirs from Okayama. Loved by many, it is a place where you can enjoy fresh seafood while experiencing the atmosphere of a fishing town.
