Toba, Japan

Kokichi Mikimoto perfected the cultured pearl on the small island in this bay that now bears his name, and Mikimoto Pearl Island still stages daily demonstrations by the ama, traditional female free-divers who have harvested these waters for centuries. Ise Grand Shrine, the most sacred site in Shinto and rebuilt in an identical form every twenty years for over a millennium, lies a short drive away. A properly restorative onsen soak and fresh Ise-ebi lobster round out one of Japan's most historically resonant coastal regions.
