The Urayasu area is a beautiful bay city that is located only 20 minutes from Tokyo by train.

The sea is within walking distance with many palm trees lining up along the roads. I personally call this area California of Kanto!
By the way, Urayasu is famous for picking clams at the beach! Of course, you don’t need to pay any extra fees for the activity. It’s really fun for kids too! The type of clam abundant in the area are called “Asari” and they are very small and used in miso soup. Why don’t you give it a try??
