Night Shrimp Catching

Parks Overview Parks Overview

Try catching freshwater shrimp (tanga) in Amami. Enjoy the beautiful view of the local mountains and rivers at dusk, with the eyes of tanga glowing in the darkness.

Come try catching tanga, Amami’s traditional freshwater shrimp. At dusk, you’ll experience a typically peaceful Amami sunset view as we walk along the Yatsuki River where the eyes of the tanga gently glow in the darkness. Every moment you’ll make a new discovery; from seeing the fish swimming in the water to finding Amami’s unique reptiles and amphibians along the riverbank, you’ll feel a deep connection with the natural world.
