Only in Shima! The Omiyage (Souvenir)

Shima’s local specialty is not limited to seafood. Many souvenirs are waiting for you!!

Pearls

exclusive pearls cultivated in quiet Matoyawan Bay and Agowan Bay are superb articles. A must among souvenirs.

Nanbari melons

By taking full advantage of the temperate climate, Nanbari melons are cultivated in greenhouses throughout the year. The quality is excellent, and you can enjoy this fine taste all year round.

Shima Kinko

Shima-produced sweet potatoes are stewed and then dried. Fresh and tasty; ideal as a snack or as healthy food.

Sawamochi

bean jam is wrapped in tender mochi (rice paste); with a touch of sweetness, it is highly commendable. You’ll enjoy this classic taste.

Kushibo

after removing the pearls, Akoya pearl oyster scallop eyes are removed, smoked and made into popular snacks.

Hipporo Zuke

Akoya pearl oyster scallop eyes are pickled in sake lees, a local specialty. The more you chew, the tastier it gets. A Shima delicacy.
