Nagoya: Ceramic Coast & Forgotten Islands Tour

Discover the hidden gems of the Chita Peninsula on a tour from Nagoya. Explore a clay cave, visit a climbing kiln restoration site, and enjoy a seafood lunch by the sea.
Begin your journey at Nagoya Station and travel to Tokoname Ceramic Art Valley. Discover a hidden clay cave that once supplied material for legendary Tokoname teapots. Enjoy hands-on clay mining using traditional tools in an underground cave. Learn to identify different clay layers and create your own raw clay souvenir under the guidance of a master potter.

Next, visit a massive 19th-century Noborigama (climbing kiln) hidden in a forest, currently being restored by a community of artists. Participate in a symbolic brick-laying ceremony for kiln restoration and meet the artists-in-residence to learn about kiln restoration techniques.

Enjoy a private lunch at "Sea & Clay Cafe," a converted 1950s fishing warehouse overlooking the Pacific. Savor an exclusive seafood hot pot using Tokoname ceramic pots and match your meal with local microbrews from Chita Peninsula. All tableware is available for purchase from emerging local artists.

Then, visit a secluded Meiji-era lighthouse accessible only through private farmland, with an operational traditional salt farm nearby that uses ancient methods. Participate in a traditional salt-making workshop using 300-year-old methods and collect your own sea salt as a souvenir.

Explore an abandoned fishing village, a gradually depopulated fishing community where remaining elderly residents maintain traditional lifestyles. Engage in a cultural exchange with local community members, learn traditional fish-drying techniques, and participate in community preservation activities.

Finally, stop at "Ceramic Bar AON," a sophisticated bar in Nagoya's hidden arts district, where every cocktail is served in unique ceramic vessels created by local artists. Enjoy a ceramic cocktail experience, meet emerging ceramic artists in their studio space, and receive a personalized ceramic name seal as a farewell gift.
