| About Nichinan City's Specialty "Spiny Lobster"

Nichinan City, located in the southern part of Miyazaki Prefecture, is known for the Nichinan Coast and the castle town of Obi, as well as being a producing area for spiny lobster. The Hyuga Sea, where the Kuroshio Current flows, is blessed with complex rocky terrain and abundant seaweed, making it an ideal fishing ground for spiny lobster. Spiny lobsters from Nichinan, raised in rough seas, are characterized by their firm flesh, plump texture, and rich sweetness.

When spiny lobster fishing season opens in September each year, the "Nichinan Coast Ise-ebi Festival," a seasonal event, is held in the city, with accommodations and restaurants offering seasonal spiny lobster dishes.
