Ibaraki Prefecture formulated the "Hitachinaka-Oarai Resort Concept" in 2019 with the aim of linking the abundant tourism resources of the Hitachinaka-Oarai area, the prefecture's top tourist destination, and making it an even more attractive area than ever before. The prefecture is working with related organizations to promote efforts to realize the concept.
As part of the Hitachinaka Oarai Resort Project, a comprehensive event centered around an international marlin fishing tournament that will be open to participants from overseas will be held from 2022.
Marlin fishing is a popular marine leisure activity among the wealthy worldwide, and by continuing to hold tournaments, we hope to make the Hitachinaka-Oarai area a "holy land for marlin fishing."
