Sarufutsu Village Mystery Tour

September 05,2025 OA

This week we’re venturing to Sarufutsu Village, Japan’s northernmost village and a town famous for its scallops. Grown in the icy waters of the Sea of Okhotsk, these scallops are popular for their rich flavor and extra-thick meat.
Our hosts set out on a one-of-a-kind Mystery Tour! What’s hidden behind a secret doorway? What’s the untold story behind a master of scallop processing? And who is the mysterious woman waiting alone at a port overlooking the Sea of Okhotsk?
Solve the riddles with us—and you’ll want to visit Sarufutsu Village for yourself!
