Shima

Shima is best known within Mie Prefecture for Ago Bay, a deeply indented ria inlet long associated with pearl cultivation. On the Shima Peninsula, the city forms part of Ise-Shima National Park, where small islands and sheltered coves contrast with the open Pacific coast. Kashikojima, an island in Ago Bay, became internationally known as the venue of the 2016 G7 Ise-Shima Summit. Seafood and cultured pearls remain central to the area’s maritime identity, while the nearby Ise Grand Shrine anchors the wider region’s Shinto pilgrimage tradition.
