Wonderful museum for anyone with an interest in cultural studies. Everything is presented in context with a thoroughness one usually only finds in living archaeology museums. The sea is a huge part of Japanese foodways and culture, but even with an academic background, you've probably never seen anything like this. The physical site is also beautiful, great buildings. I want to come back for one of their hands-on workshops. I came by car, but there is a bus stop.

An excellent museum filled with interesting artifacts from Toba's maritime history. If you're interested in the history of pearl divers (Ama), then you must visit this museum. The museum is wonderfully curated and has beautiful architecture, as well as good English explanations for most exhibits.

Surprisingly good English explanation museum in a remote area. There are 3 main halls and 2 small exhibition hall. One explains about fisherman way of life. One is a boat showcase. The other one about fishing and ama (woman diver). To see all exhibition you need about 90-120 minutes.

Out of the way museum that shows the rich history of the AMA divers and seafaring ways. Incredible collection including rare artifacts. The number 2 bus trip from Toba was a great way to find the Museum following the coast.

ずっと気になっていたのですが、ようやく訪問出来ました。 直前に展望台で海や船に思いを向けた所に、パールロードから下りて来て建物が見えると期待感MAXです。 そして、その期待が裏切られる事はありませんでした。 大学生まで400円、大人800円。 漁(海女さんにフォーカス)と船(木船からエンジンつき始めた迄)がメインになりますが、木造船をリスペクトした建物も素晴らしい!! 船の収蔵庫は画像で良く見ますが、実際の木造船100隻を目の当たりにすると、何やら感動の思いでした。見下ろせるお立ち台もあり。必見です。 潜水艇 白鯨号に入れたのは貴重な体験です。 ミュージアムショップの品揃え、とても光っています。 素敵なカフェがあり、メニューも ところてん・伊勢うどん・牡蠣カレーなど、地元リスペクトですし素敵でした。 重要文化財収蔵庫が見られる機会があれば、また是非来たいです! (蛇足) ・展示の統計資料、そろそろ更新した方が良い物もありますね。 ・体験学習館、学校が休みの機会は土日以外もやってるといいですね。 ・研究棟(三重大学関連施設)の展示、準備中なんでしょうかね。空でした。 ・割引は公式ホームページからの印刷クーポンで百円引、その他JAFなどで1割引。PayPay使えます。 ・楽天チケット購入できるみたいですが日付古くてよく分かりません(修正した方が·····)
