The third largest Landings in Japan!
Firefly Squid in season in Spring!
＼

Crab fishing ended on March 20th, and I would like to say that it is a little Vacation, but now the fishermen in Echizen Town have switched to aiming for firefly Squid!

Speaking of firefly squid, Toyama is famous, but in fact, Echizen Town is also a major production area of firefly squid.
Hyogo Prefecture is in first place, Toyama Prefecture is in second place, and Fukui Prefecture is in third place!

In the port of Echizen Town, which is responsible for most of the Landings, firefly squid are being Landed!

Come to Echizen Town in Spring to eat the nutritious and sparkling firefly Squid!
