Ito Shark City
★★★★☆
(412)
Ito is a relatively new point located in Tateyama, Boso Peninsula, Chiba Prefecture. You’ll see baited sharks and stingrays, as well as large groupers. Boat diving only. There are buoys at either end of a large, narrow root, and depending on the current, the fish will enter from one buoy and rise from the other.
The number of sharks coming to feed is impressive. More than a dozen sharks can be seen at one time. There are also huge stingrays, lobster fish, sunfish, that come to visit.
